To those who hate the new Foxnews layout (as I do) one alternative is to set up an RSS newsfeed reader, which allows you to just scroll through the headlines, which are presented much like email subject headers, and then click on the specific news item you want to go to rather than trying to make sense of the Foxnews layout.
RSS newsfeeds are easy to set up and get, and there are lots of free software applications that allow you to do this. There are many ways to learn more about RSS newsfeeds, but one of my favorite sites is:

http://channels.lockergnome.com/rss/

RSS has dramatically streamlined my news reading, and it's easier to set up than I may have made it appear. It allows me to scan the news items from numerous sites in less time than it used to take me to go to sites individually via my web browser.
