Looking at a lot of the news aggregators they seem to have a bias towards the US. Does anyone know of aggregators that have more of a European bias. This question is prompted by a customer that likes the idea of an RSS feed, but wants the information directed towords a more European audience. Or is it the case the news aggregators, Newsgator, Yahoo..etc are location independant and that the reason they have more of a US bias is because RSS has not taken off in Europe as much as in the States?

There's a British aggregator, www.newsnow.co.uk, that might fit the bill -- they sound as if they will tailor the news to meet the needs of the customer.
They use plenty of US material, but each item is accompanied by a flag indicating the originating country, so a reader can see at a glance the source of the news.

There's also the BBC's World RSS feed.
