I was reffering to having a list for Wikinews to send out the latest breaking news, like Jason said. For example, if we broke a big story, something like the Benoit story, someone could send out a message to interested parties. Only certain people (i.e. our accredidated reporters) would be allowed to send FROM that address, but anyone can subscribe.

The EFF already has scoop on their mailing list.

Do you think it would be appropriate for Wikinews to have a "breaking news" mailing list that people could subscribe to? For example, CNN has a list, MSNBC, and the Electronic Frontier Foundation. Perhaps it could be:

breaking-l@lists.wikimedia.org

breaking-news-l@lists.wikimedia.org

wikinews-breaking-l@lists.wikimedia.org
