I've got a lot of problems with news (world news, sci/tech, political, etc) and how I get to it. It's hard to stay current with news. Articles are full of fluff, information is spread across many different sources, and getting updates on stories is tough. The other thing on my mind lately is another content related problem. I feel like more of my web searches are leading towards MFA sites with sub-par content and irrelevant ads plastered everywhere.
