OMMA (http://www.mediapostpublications.com/omma), has just published (http://publications.mediapost.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=Articles.showArticleHomePage&art_aid=38936) their list of top online publishers.

These destinations offer readers a mother lode of rich and diverse content on a consistent basis. And in the realm of marketing, our picks are innovative leaders, aggressively deploying new ad formats and video features, while striking a delicate balance between readers' interests and advertisers' needs.

They have chosen the following sites to be the best online publishers:
MSNBC.com
NYTimes.com
BusinessWeek Online
Gizmodo.com
TVGuide.com
ESPN.com
iTunes.com
iVillage.com
CNET
Pogo.com

In the technology category, they list CNET, Engadget.com, Gizmodo.com, Lycos Network Wired News, and Slashdot.com among the best.

Something interesting to note is the fact that Yahoo! has several sites listed in the rankings, including Yahoo! Finance, Yahoo! Entertainment, Yahoo! Games, Yahoo! Music, and Yahoo! News. I don't see Google (Google News) or MSN anywhere.
