Sick of these TV commercials.
"Oh, I was just getting my news from one source but this app lets me get "BOTH SIDES."
Fuck you fuck you fuck you SmartNews
Fuck you and you're pushing of Fox News on your app and in the commercial.
Fuck you and your false equivalence of the validity of both sides of an issue.
Just go fuck yourselves and die the death of all failed apps.

(6,366 posts)cheerleaders derserve any weight. Chuck Todd makes me want to vomit. Elise Jordan, a both-sider, should be banned from MSNBC along with the other apologists. Hughs gotta go. I mean we get one channel against the Fox frenzy and I just dont want to see the other side cause I know their arguments are garbage. Sorry got little off topic but gotta vent somewhere.

After all, some arguments are better than others.
Eff Smartnews!

(103,812 posts)a live stream a little while ago and there was a new ad for them that I hadn't seen before. I noticed that at least once there seemed to be some indication of a MSN logo, at least that's what I thought when I saw the "flash" of a rainbow wafting through the scene somehow. So I wonder if its one of their products or apple... whomever uses a rainbow image.

(258,873 posts)It's not like we haven't heard the term "both sides" elsewhere recently! And when these damn commercials come on, I say the same thing to the TV that you posted.

I hadn't heard about SmartNews till yesterday when my stepson and his beautiful wife called and asked about it. I said BLOCK. They did.
