This just in: A new service from Mefeedia: News Video Search “Mefeedia News.” It aggregates embeddable video from over 500 news sources. The searchable videos are then grouped by topics.

Here are the key features:

* Browse and Search by Topic – each topic can be narrowed based on just the stories that interest you. For example, browse to “Politics” and search for “obama“. Or browse to “Technology” and search for “facebook“.
* Feeds – receive the latest news video via MediaRSS that you can input into your feed reader of choice.
* Watch – watch all news videos and podcasts via embeds, using the sources’ player (where available).
* “Watch this page” – watch all of your search results in a Theater View for easy scanning and viewing.

Sources:

Sources include major news publishers, local news organizations (via ClipSyndicate), and blogs. The sources were based on popularity, relevancy, and user-curated channels that allow the users to have input into which sources are authorities in each topic, such as technology news.
