Any suggestions on the best news websites to read that are interesting and formative? I have found a lot of news sites in Japan like Yahoo and NHK function as sort of net portals for some people and thus have more than just the news. Is there a good straight news page for some main sites, some good places to read op-eds, and maybe some interesting news-related blogs (in Japanese, of course) that anyone could recommend? Thanks.

Because I don't want to create another thread with the same topic, does someone maybe sknow a news website for Phone related stuff (something like PhoneArena) and a news site for games? And maybe a new website for anime/manga?
It's so hard to find some good one's with limited Japanese.
