(h/t to Dave Dougdale for finding this)
Wanna know how to create a news piece, shot-by-shot? Look no further than this Charlton "Charlie" Brooker (British journalist, comic writer and broadcaster) piece. It's funny, but if you study it, you've got an instant template for your own programs. (Warning: a single f-bomb ahead.)

Charlie Brooker's meta-television programs are fascinating and entertaining if you can find them. Newswipe deconstructs the news media and Sreenwipe goes deep behind the scenes for television programs (programmes?) in general.

http://www.soundsnap.com/ is my primary source for sound effects. They've got a huge library, to cost ranges from free to cheap and it's a wonderful collaborative project of artists and technicians. Granted, the quality can be uneven, but you can definitely find top-notch effects. Check out Soundsnap.com's first video, which is kind of a video of philosophical musings from sound designer Frank Serafine, who worked on Tron and Star Trek, among many other films.
