2/5News is great…app could use some work
News articles provided are great and timely. App could use some work…freezes up regularly after only a few minutes of use, assuming due to large number of ads. Not disputing the need for ads for a free app, just that the performance of the app could be improved.

5/5Boo!
I used to enjoy reading everything but now that you are charging to read most articles I’ve almost decided to delete my app. Plus football season is here and it will be nothing but football from start to finish. Block those articles!

5/5Horrible loud ads play on most stories
Why is this site the only news site that automatically plays loud obnoxious ads when an article is clicked on.....without even touching the ad. Even if the ads weren’t so loud or sooo in your face...

1/5Biased Ad-plagued App
If you enjoy biased News reporting, and an App full of intrusive Ads, then this is the App for you! You would be better off to sell your soul to the prince of darkness, and spend each morning watching CNN, while reading the physical print version of the Newspaper. Oh, wait, you CAN’T, because we don’t have one any more. Really a shame that this Media company hasn’t figured out that they are destroying themselves by their Bias... I guess shutting down the print version wasn’t a big enough warning sign.

3/5Some grammatical and spelling errors , too left leaning
I’m an avid news reader, regularly reading six different sources per day. I am distracted by poorly written leads and stories that even my high school teachers would have ranted about. I often see errors here that could easily be proofread and corrected. In addition, wish the writers could present facts without personal bias, like real journalists used to do.
