8 of 25Thank you, Disney thank you ABC for standing up for the first amendment! The first thing a tyrant will do is try to stop the press and you wouldn’t accept that. That’s excellent. That’s what I expect in a news organization.
I thought ABC was tough but I see that you are afraid of what (people) say about a subject. I am very disappointed in ABC
It seems that every time I look at the news on your application, it is so slanted towards “the left” that I find it utterly useless. Thus I am deleting the application, I’m tired of reading stories written by childish leftist leaning writers.
Testing…
I’ve never hated an app so much yet loved it at the same time. There is a Disney ad EVERY time a news segment finishes. 1 minute news segment, 30 second ad, and it’s ALWAYS Ethos or The Rookie. I won’t even watch that show out of pure annoyance.
I’m writing this as I delete the app. I’ve grown tired of the auto-playing videos. More frequently they have started autoplaying in the background after the app has been closed. Miss me with that. See you never.
As I’m scrolling through headlines - over at least 2 updates, the app shuts down Had been a vet reliable app until recently
BUT I CANT FIND IT ON THIS APP.
