I don't know a single person that uses a "news app", so I'll take this feat with a grain of salt.
- scarface74 8y agoYes because your anecdotal experience is statistically relevant....
- 59nadir 8y agoI wasn't speaking for all the world. I said I'll take it with a grain of salt. Reading the news in general has obviously taken a huge hit in popularity and doing so via a special app (outside of the community driven ones like Reddit) is an even smaller part of the way people consume this media. It's obvious from peoples' experience with Apple News in these comments that a lot of content consumed from there is actually involuntary from widgets, etc.. What I took away from that quote is in line with that; this isn't really much of a feat when dug deeper into.
