PowerReporting

Oldie but goodie!

Bill Dedman provides one of the most complete and most organized lists of reporter resources. These "thousands of free research tools for journalists" are arranged into helpful categories such as people finders, company, nonprofit and government; and additionally helpful - by beat.

Dedman came onsite a few years ago and his backgrounding sessions were a true hit. Check out his Power Reporting instructional aids at the bottom of his home page.
