5. The Guardian Has The Best Reporting
and is primarily responsible for getting the scandal to this point of disclosure. They have excellent summaries and I really like the daily live blog that they run on the activities connected to the scandal. Check them out. I think you will be impressed with the coverage.

7. It's looking like Watergate was a grade-school puppet show
compared to the 3D Avatar-esqueness of of this scandal.

It appears increasingly likely that this is a global scandal of immense reach and complexity. compared to a little breaking-and-entering spy scandal.
