If it helps in the last year the quality of their journalism has crashed through the floor.
Funny you should say that. My method of reading the various news feeds is to scan the main page and select the articles that look interesting out to separate tabs to read later.
I've noticed over the last six months or so that it's becoming very rare for me to select even ONE article per day.
