From various sources, here is a quick roundup of mainstream coverage of and blog responses to Falwell's death this week. I've barely begun to get through this list. Someone ought to start a wiki.

Many of these links are from ReligionHeadlines.org and from other Religion Newswriters Assoc. pages. Some are from the GetReligion.org post on Falwell from this week. Others are from Beliefnet. Highly incomplete; I plan to update this. Feel free to leave additional links in the comments.
