The News has a blog, Latest from the Ann Arbor News, which updates throughout the day with breaking news. There is a bootleg rebroadcast of this blog through Twitter at a2snooze. A daily webcast is shot in the downtown Ann Arbor newsroom on the third floor of the historic Albert Kahn building at Huron and Division.

The News is sometimes referred to as the "Snooze."

Some observers feel the News has a tendency to overplay "scandal" stories related to the University of Michigan.
