Okay so, most of us have pet peeves, and among mine is obtaining a news alert, something labeled “Breaking News” and then for the next two hours I get the exact same story from 10 different news sources. It appears to me things are receiving only a little uncontrollable, and perhaps that is among the problems of having news media apps on personal tech devices, or subscribing to e-mail news lists of newspaper headlines various media outlets. Someone needs to repair this issue because it’s getting so ridiculous, it’s completely extraordinary, and it is really a waste of our time as users to own to keep deleting everything. Okay so let’s talk.
Someone needs to come up with an application which scans all what of the media news alert that you get, and doesn’t deliver duplicate “breaking news stories” from multiple media venues. Let’s say you take the New York Times, your neighborhood paper, the USA Today, and a few TV news stations’ e-mail notifications, or donate to their apps. In cases like this, if a famous person died for instance, the app would scan all the info inside it and if there is no new information from the past breaking news alert from a different media outlet, it’d simply send it to the deleted box.
Allow me to offer you a typical example of why I even chose to write this article. Last week I felt an earthquake, it wasn’t significantly more than about 40 miles away. Within 3 minutes, I got a news alert that there is a 5.5 earthquake near here. I got this news alert before I even had time and energy to review to the computer to search Cal Tech’s online earthquake reports, something that men and women in California execute a lot. Then, for what should have been an hour or so and a half I kept getting breaking news alerts from a number of news organizations such as the New York Times, Washington Post, and Miami Herald.
Yes, I realize these newspapers are pretty far away, and it probably isn’t a genuine big problem for them, nonetheless it sure seemed like plenty of nonsense for me, after all, I felt the thing over an hour or so and a half ago, I don’t need someone to tell me there is an earthquake. Further, it looked like they certainly were all duplicates, like the Associated Press had typed it up and given into all the newspapers, and they merely replayed it to any or all their subscribers’ e-mail boxes. Enough is enough. Please think over all of this and think on it.
