My hobby as a newsjunkie is to tweet news that I find interesting, or that I'm reading. These are the sources I use to tweet Japanese news of the day in English
Asahi ( The good site is unfortunately paywalled after 5 articles, but it's the AJW )
Sometimes The Denki Shimbun
Subculture stuff from Japan Subculture Research Center. ( Disclosure, Jake Adelstein is a frequent client of mine,)
Anime stuff from Crunchyroll News, Danny Choo and Anime News Network
I'll occasionally add more to this list as I remember them.
