Do you know how do newspapers like the Daily News hear about stories as they're breaking?

We're still old school here: we listen to police scanners. But there's also BNN, the Breaking News Network beeper, which is now going onto iPhones. Basically they're a service we subscribe to. They listen to walls of scanners and type in stuff. But you know what, it's not very good. Very often they're first, but we call it “Buff Beeper Bullshit” because it's not that accurate. They let us know that something's maybe up.
