In general thought, most news actually isn't news. It's just data and we need to model what we actually care about, and then monitor for that.
E.g. I don't really care that there's a war in Darfur, I care that the world has more armed conflicts now than last year. So write a script to keep track of them (scrape wikipedia) and when the number goes up, email yourself to write a check to UNHCR.
