Use Yahoo! to Get the Latest News, Weather and Sports

Yahoo! is all about information-and the latest, most important information is called news. Yahoo! offers a variety of ways for you to get the latest news-and weather and sports-from simple news headlines to hand-picked news alerts to Internet feeds of television and radio news. Read on to learn the many ways to read the news on the Yahoo! network of sites.

Yahoo! News
When you want all the latest news, Yahoo! is the place to go. Just about any combination of up-to-the-minute headlines and in-depth reporting is available on Yahoo!'s many news pages, and they're all just a few clicks away! (And by up-to-the-minute, I mean up-to-the-minute-news headlines at Yahoo! News are updated so fast that they often beat the TV news guys on breaking stories!)

Yahoo!'s main news page is Yahoo! News (news.yahoo.com). This page includes all the latest headlines, stories, and photos, as well as a News Search feature that lets you search for stories, photos, and audio/video reports by topic.

Yahoo! Weather

If you want to know whether or not to break out the rain gear, sun block, or snowshoes, go to Yahoo! Weather (weather.yahoo.com). Yahoo! Weather lets you enter a zip code or city name, and then displays a full-featured weather page-complete with current conditions, a five-day forecast, and links to additional weather resources, including weather maps and news stories.

Yahoo! Sports
Yahoo!'s source for sports news, scores, and statistics is Yahoo! Sports (sports.yahoo.com). Yahoo! Sports offers all the latest sports headlines, both concise scores and detailed box scores, and in-depth features on important sports topics. You'll even find links to separate pages for all major sports and leagues-including the NFL, NHL, NBA, MLB, NCAA football and basketball, NASCAR, world soccer, rugby, golf, and tennis.

Yahoo! Entertainment
The home base for all of Yahoo!'s entertainment offerings is Yahoo! Entertainment (entertainment.yahoo.com). Yahoo! Entertainment includes links to Yahoo!'s more specific entertainment sites-Movies, TV, Games, and
Astrology-as well as the latest entertainment news, top ten lists, new releases, and listings and schedules. If you only go to one entertainment page on the Web, Yahoo! Entertainment is as good a site as any.

Yahoo! Movies
What new movies are playing in theaters this week? What were last week's top box office draws? What's happening in the world of Hollywood?

For the answers to all these questions-and more-go to Yahoo! Movies (movies.yahoo.com). In addition to all the industry news and reviews, you'll also find the latest videotape and DVD releases and a detailed list of showtimes at your local theaters. You can even view trailers for current and upcoming releases right from the Yahoo! Movies home page.

Yahoo! TV
Anything good on the tube tonight? You can find out quickly at Yahoo! TV(tv.yahoo.com). Yahoo! TV includes TV news, gossip, reviews, ratings, and listings for your local area. (When you first log into Yahoo! TV, you'll be asked some questions about how you receive your TV signals, so Yahoo! TV can display customized listings for your broadcast stations, cable system, or satellite television provider.)
