I have no idea what SJW means, but if it's the opposite of Alex Jones, then I'm all for it.
Apple are getting so sloppy these days. How can a major release that they touted yesterday get through their testing procedures and release management with bugs such as this
Dude. R.E.L.A.X.
Just let your ADF postures take a sabbatical for once.
[The posts you are charging full-bore against, most likely than not, were placed to inject some levity after yesterday's "Show Time".]
Par for the course. Apple has never been able to get services right from the beginning. And Cook seems like he's OK with that as long as the Keynote goes off well. In order to judge the new Apple you just need to see if the publicity generated is positive or not.
Installed 12.2 and it worked yesterday but totally unusable today on my iPad. Wow, major fail Mr. Cook!
The whole services event was a fail IMO. Crappy services all around. And why would you push magazines, many of which are scanned PDFs, into the News app. Whatever happened to their News Stand app? That would have been a better place for it.
The first news article should read, "Breaking news, Apples's new News+ service breaks their News app!"
You can hire the best programmers in the world, but bad leadership will still produce mediocre products at best. Just listen to Keynotes, the way middle management tries to mimic and sound like Tim Cook to the point you would think they are gay too (no offence). It tells a lot about company culture. Highest priority is to appease the boss, not doing good professional work. So Emojis Support gets pushed up in the issue queue, while the obscure bug or reported security vulnerability is ignored.
And slowly the codebase degrades and rots...

Sounds like Apple News will be a nice safe space for you
That's probably coming soon.
Apple added support for RSS-based audio distribution, Podcasts, in 2005. While Apple did not invent it per se, their support and proliferation of Podcasts revolutionized modern spoken-word storytelling and episodic audio content.
If it were done today, Apple would have called itRadio+ and charged $10/month.
Just a thought I had.
"Can anyone tell me what Apple News+ is supposed to do?"
Well sir, it's a revamped subscription-based Apple News service that includes news and in-depth journalism from well-known publishers and exclusive content from popular newsstand magazine brands and is supposed to work easily and without crashing.
"So, why the *@&! doesn't it do that?"
Your post reminds of Steve Jobs take on the quality of hires.
"Make sure you're hiring only A-players. Hire a few B-players, he said, and they hire B's and C's, and pretty soon the whole operation is going to pot." [Steve Jobs]
[And, apparently after yesterday's "Show Time", the B- and C-players may have made it their home in Cupertino.]

Why no Dark Mode (except the side-panel) in the News App? I use Feedly in Vivaldi with 2 stacked panels. I've never been able to adopt Safari. It's been a beta-level browser forever and remains that way. I'm really angry that in this version of Mojave, I could only enter my Google credentials *in Safari* rather than in the Preferences Pane. Why should I have had to enter it at all, Apple?
My mind wanders back to the days of accusing MS of forcing Explorer on us and our resistance. My how times have changed.

I can imagine that it is extremely difficult to test a new service under real-world conditions where millions of people will be hitting the servers at once. Give 'em a break, sometimes these things require optimization on the back-end.
Same here. Been using Vivaldi for a while now. Safari has needed more work for years. On your comment about MS and IE...that one always confused me. It seemed like Apple was allowed to do things that MS couldn't. Either way...Safari needs a huge overhaul.
As for the news app...Apple is big on censoring, so doubt their news will be anything more than what we would get with CNN and SJW type of news.
Can we get proof of them saying they invented any of what you claimed? Spreading **** like this is so stupid.
I've already seen evidence of it. I set up Feedly for exactly what I want to see. Mostly European and Canadian news with the Corporate MSM in there for contrast. I use Dark Reader for Vivaldi as Safari's "dark mode" app was useless. Funny, Dark Reader wanted me to PAY for their Google Extension for Safari. Yeah - no thanks.
I never understood why Apple couldn't get it together with Safari. Those who use it must not really push a browser much. It's ok on the iPhone but for real work? I kept testing Vivaldi for over 2 years before I adopted it. Now, it's the best browser I've ever used - too bad it still takes up a lot of CPU.
Fixed here. I actually like the service.

Just was reading National Review on it. Uh, they’re definitely not SJW fare.

I signed up for the one-month trial on my iPhone. The app hasn't crashed, but a lot of the magazines are difficult to read on the iPhone because they're the actual images of the magazine pages. So I decided to try it on my iMac. But when I opened the app on my iMac (with the same iCloud account), it doesn't seem to know that I'm already subscribed to the trial. I'm reluctant to click on the subscribe button on the iMac in case it subscribes me a second time.
The fact that I couldn't get the iPhone app to stop showing me FAUX news stories (just like Flipboard) meant I refused to use it any longer. I get to see exactly what I want to see in Feedly.
