I, like a number of others, view these discussions using a news
reader.  Does(n't) that make this a newsgroup?

I think there isn't a clear answer to that.  So I have an alternative
to suggest.

Each such on-line discussion should be called a "forum".  Whether it
is (also) a list, newsgroup, blog, or whatever, depends only on what
type of software you use to access it.  Beauty is in the eye of the
beholder?

Yours colloquially.
