A post on ProBlogger describes three methods you can try that may help you get your site featured on one of the major news sites. Don’t get excited, by featured they are not talking about having a nice article written about your blog, they are however talking about getting a link back with some exposure which could increase your traffic.
IAs the probloger post says:
Did you know that you can get your site featured on major news sites like CNN, CNET, Newsweek, USA Today, and even the Wall Street Journal. It’s one of the best kept secrets in the blogosphere and I’m going to reveal it in this article.

Do you fancy a link from Reuters, USA Today, Fox News, or the Houston Chronicle, then join a blog syndication network called BlogBurst. If your blog is accepted then you may gain increased visibility, branding, and perhaps even traffic.
If the New York Times or the Wall Street Journal is more up your alley then you will need to get noticed by BlogRunner. This is not a site you join; this is a site that finds you.
BlogRunner is a news aggregator so the easiest way to get noticed by the news media is to blog about stories in those newspapers and to draw attention to your post.
If CNN, The Wall Street Journal, or Newsweek appeal then a trip to Sphere may help. Mainstream media is really starting to embrace blogs. The search engines like these online media giants so they can and will rank well.
