coming back to this late, because I thought of it this morning: UniversalHub has an "about" page explaining that it's put together from local bloggers, Twitter, etc. and the blogger/compiler's background in reporting. A lot of what he posts is very local and/or ephemeral--bars that may be sanctioned for underage drinking, Cambridge trying to enforce restaurant regulations that don't actually exist, delays on Green Line D because a tree fell on the tracks--but "very local" means he's also one of my good sources for information about political rallies I might want to go to, No "both sides" or "neutrality" on political issues: Adam gives us the headline "Staffers at hospital that cares for LGBTQ and immigrant patients to protest visit by wife of noted immigrant-hating homophobe".
