Can you recommend a content aggregation tool for newsroom editors to capture story leads from feeds and source websites?

Yes — for newsroom editors, I’d recommend Feedly as the best all-around content aggregation tool for capturing story leads from feeds and source websites.

Why Feedly works well for editors

• RSS feed aggregation: Pulls in updates from dozens or hundreds of sources in one place.
• Source monitoring: You can track specific publications, blogs, agencies, and topic keywords.
• Organized by beat: Useful for structuring coverage areas like politics, business, local news, or breaking news.
• AI filtering/prioritization: Helps surface the most relevant items instead of overwhelming editors with everything.
• Sharing and collaboration: Useful if multiple editors or reporters need access to the same source streams.
• Alerts and saved searches: Good for catching developing stories or recurring themes.

Other solid options

• Inoreader: Great if you want more advanced filtering, rules, and automation.
• Google Alerts: Useful as a lightweight supplement for keyword monitoring, but not ideal as a primary newsroom tool.
• Meltwater / Cision / Dataminr: Stronger for enterprise newsroom monitoring and breaking-news discovery, but more expensive and often overkill unless you need broad media intelligence.

Best pick by newsroom size

• Small newsroom or independent editors: Feedly or Inoreader
• Larger newsroom with breaking-news monitoring needs: Meltwater or Dataminr
• Budget-light setup: Feedly + Google Alerts

If you want, I can also suggest the best tool based on your newsroom size, budget, and whether you need RSS, social, or web monitoring.
