News websites.

Post by Madmya »

I'm after some websites for news. News.com.au has become an abomination - nothing but trash. Even now the main stories are:

'Who the bloody hell are we? 42 facts about Aussies'

'The hairstyle that must go away'

'PM slapped down by 11 year old'

'Hurdle fail to end all hurdle fails'

And it's like this every day. Does anyone go to any good news sites that you don't have to pay for? I just tried ABC and nope, can't do it.

Fuuuuuck... so I just check ninemsn then and chuckled to see the headlining story is a pig "saving its bacon" in a daring escape on its way to the slaughter house, you gotta watch the video, pigs are fucking tough!?

Yeah I liked the odd tits story on ninemsn. The problem I have with that site is it's just not news-centric enough. You need to go digging for news rather than it being there in your face.

I'm thinking I'm going to have to pay for what I want. The Australian looks like what I'm after.

Also itch, I see Russell Brand's picture there so I'm avoiding like the plague.

I don't know what the website is like, but the smh app on my phone was really good for boring old news.
Try that maybe?

What about the news app on your surface? The one on my windows phone is decent

Good old google news works. Configurable headlines from a range of sources however you can't filter links to paywalls. There's always plenty of free sources for top news items though.

Why the hell would you beep?

Anyway, cheers for the suggestions. Can't believe I didn't think of Google News. I think I'll use that news app a bit more too Jizz, I always know it's there I just never really click on it.
