Hi all,
We have a couple of sections on our newspaper website (the ordinary News, Sports, etc.), and I was wondering how to incorporate those with our breadcrumbs. I also wanted to ask how one should go about using breadcrumbs in a news website.
Thanks,

Custom Module
Honestly I end up coding a custom module for breadcrumbs, due to the unique rules that happen. Then again I find this easier to do then create complex rules in a module.

List of breadcrumb modules

new one that is not in the list above http://drupal.org/project/hansel
In terms of site structure I always try to go for a folders structure.
"Home" is the front page
"Story Category" linking to that taxonomy term
"Node title" you are here
Which means the site is structured like
example.com <- This is a view
example.com/sports <- This is a view
example.com/sports/we-win-again <- This is a node
