Yes.
But they generally breakdown among political lines: Fox to the right, everybody else to the left (to one degree or another) and nothing in the true center. There is ample room for an alternative national news operation where everything isn't cast in political or economic terms.
When I lived in the area the WP did a good job of covering the full spectrum without carrying water for either side. Applying that approach to online news as a form of counterprogramming might bring in people fed-up with the coverage from the current camps.
