This is a good idea but I already disagree with the output. Of the top stories, the majority of them are "could" and "probably" -- that isn't news.
News is something that either has happened or is going to happen. If it might not happen, then it's speculation, that isn't news (imo).
e.g.
- "US Braces for potential recession" -- no, the REAL story is the interest rate is going up
- "US Debt default could happen by 2023" -- pure speculation, not news
- "WEF predicts jobs disrupted" -- speculation, not news
And also I echo the other comments about it being overly US-centric, but that's par for the course.
Edit: I should also say, good job! It's a nice website
- gnulinux 3y ago> - "US Debt default could happen by 2023" -- pure speculation, not news It seems like this will happen unless something significant changes. It also seems likely something significant will change, such as GOP and Dems agreeing. But until that happens, Federal Government seems to be on track to default.
