[news services] who's quickest

The reason I like the Melbourne Age, as distinct from the usuals - BBC News and Google News, is that it is so fast. I've just been in and found this about the monorail crash but at this point, it does not appear on other news services:

Two monorail trains crashed in the Magic Kingdom section of Walt Disney World, killing one train's operator. Disney said it was the first fatal crash in the monorail's 38-year history in the park. The transit system, which shuttles thousands of visitors around the sprawling resort each day, was shut down while authorities investigated the holiday weekend wreck.

Apart from speed, the paper has descended into tat in the past five years.
