This list, known as Technorati Attention Index, illustrates the strong influence of mainstream online media in the blogosphere. And the higher the number of incoming links to a news site in the past 30 days, the higher the rank of that site will be in the Attention index.
International Herald Tribune (iht.com) is not part of the list as it has merged with The New York Times website (nyt.com) but the biggest surprise here is the absence of Christian Science Monitor website which recently ceased their print edition and switched to a web-only format.
Associated Press (AP) is probably represented by Google News in the index since that’s where AP stories are currently hosted on the Internet.
