Google news really is a great resource. I use it to set up news alerts if I'm painting any clients who are public figures. Google news will send me an email any time their name appears in the press. It helps me understand what's happening in their lives and to serve as a conversation point when we meet next.
You can also set your own name up for Google news alerts. Then you get an email any time someone mentions your name or work in the press. Always helpful to know about, and you can print out any articles that might be useful to put in your portfolio.
