Reddit for Independent(a UK newspaper) does not seem to work: http://reddit.independent.co.uk/ http://reddit.independent.co.uk/ Maybe there's not a market for their platform.

Yes, I remember NYT also tried something like this with reddit. I think the main reason it didn't take off is that one single media entity just doesn't have that much interesting content to keep it vibrant enough.

  Agreed. In the mornings I would read NYT, Reuters, Bloomberg, NPR, Google Alerts, and HN. One source isn't good enough.

  That, plus their readers do not seem to be interested in karma and point games.
