The BBC do... and they're a very good start!

Give them the it'll be a quicker way to reach people, emails like the 
ones you're talking about just generally get trashed.  At least with RSS 
the people using it will actually want to read the stuff you're making 
available to them.  Also you can give them the security argument, less 
likely hood of being accused of spamming or filling peoples email boxes 
with newsletters they've forgotton they signed up for.  Its easier to 
subscribe/unsubscribe.  blah de blah

;o)

good luck
