Oh wow, the failing NYT pulls out because they want to keep user data to sell to advertisers.
The New York Times today announced that it is pulling out of Apple News, as the service does not "align with its strategy of building direct relationships with paying readers."
It’s indeed crap.Lol did anyone ever think Apple News+ would be successful? I think like 10 people got it total.
I'm still flabbergasted that people pay for news articles in the first place.
Apple News needs tiered pricing. In order to get high quality content, they need to charge closer to $50/month. The Wall Street Journal, for example, charges $50/month for full access to its online content.
Apple needs to focus. They are all over the place.
If you haven't seen why an independent free press is worthy of compensation in the last four years I don't know what to tell you.
Their news is fine. It’s the opinion columns that i wish there were an easy way to ban from my News feed.Good for the NYTs. At least Apple hasFox NewsThe Wall Street Journal.

Agreed, NYT's opinion is the worst part of them and the only reason I won't give them any money or my time.Their news is fine. It’s the opinion columns that i wish there were an easy way to ban from my News feed.
maybe a little old school, but I am 33 and feel like I am techie enough, but there is nothing better than a physical newspaper. I tried to read the news in the morning on my iPad in order to be a little more environmentally friendly, but I LOVE getting the newspaper in person.I liked the idea of Apple News in theory, but chose to directly subscribe to The NYT directly (along with The Washington Post) and continue my physical subscriptions to my handful of magazines. Maybe I am just too Old School.

Good riddance. Less junk on my phone is better.
