Apple News is another way to access this article without paying for a full WSJ subscription.


Is there a non-Apple way to do this? It seems natural for Google news to step in here, but somehow Google News just keeps finding ways to get worse. I stopped using it when it kept showing me the same fake news shady WordPress blogs hosted out of Brazil attempting to impersonate US news outlets. Super weird phenomenon.


I remember reading that Apple’s podcast platform doesn’t bring in much revenue, but they continue to maintain and improve it because of the valuable UX it gives its customers. I wonder if Apple News is the same?

In Google’s defense, most companies besides Apple don’t care about UX if it doesn’t directly affect quarterly revenues.
