The NationStates Newswire is an international news aggregate operated by The Republic of Adam Island. Created in July, 2005, the website collects newsfeeds from Technorati, Flickr and other news blogs to create a frequently updated picture of important events in the NationStates world.

Because the Newswire does not report news but simply gathers it, it is difficult to find bias in its presentation. However, because only a small number of NationStates reporters post to a blog with an RSS feed instead of a message board, and because only a small number of those tag Technorati, the Newswire is biased towards nations with more advanced reporting by default.
