Perhaps consider their rss feeds? NYtimes.com `<LINK rel="alternate" TYPE="application/rss+xml" TITLE="RSS" HREF="http://long_path/HomePage.xml" />` [download] cnn.com `<link rel="alternate" type="application/rss+xml" title="CNN - Top Stories [RSS]" href="http://long_path/cnn_topstories.rss" > <link rel="alternate" type="application/rss+xml" title="CNN - Recent Stories [RSS]" href="http://long_path/cnn_latest.rss" >` [download]	[reply] [d/l] [select]

It's usually very painful, but if you're persistent, you'll get through it.	[reply]
