Another 4,000 flights delays and cancellations were recorded just today, piling onto the more than 10,000 disruptions yesterday. New Hampshire was hit with a fast-moving storm damaging homes, while historic rainfalls in Death Valley, California, stranded a thousand people in the park. Overnight, lightning struck a fuel storage tank in Cuba, causing a massive fire to explode and spread to a second tank. Nearly 80 people were hospitalized in that incident. This comes as Kentucky, still reeling from last week’s devastating floods, gets hit again with another two to three inches of rain. To top it off, 73 million Americans are under heat alerts, with Omaha, Tampa, and El Paso bracing for record-breaking temperatures.

There are many sources of current news, but how do you decide what to read? A good way to decide what to read is to sign up for a free subscription to an online news service, such as CNN or NBC News. The news service will list recent news articles by date, with bolded column headings indicating which stories are current. You can also view news from two years ago by clicking on the ‘Archived News’ tab.
Streaming news has already changed the way people watch TV. Instead of waiting around for cable or satellite operators to add a new channel to their lineup, viewers now get news on their own time and from wherever they happen to be. This approach reduces the sense of scarcity and creates a personalized experience for viewers. Streaming also means that the audience for news content is based on your preferences, rather than the demands of advertisers. With this strategy, it’s possible to get the same coverage as a traditional news outlet without the annoyance of ads.
In addition to streaming, major broadcast and cable news organizations have made a large profit. In 2020, CNN, Fox, and MSNBC combined profits of $3 billion. Streaming news would like a piece of that profit. That’s why they’ve tried to emulate the cable format, approach, and style. Basically, they’re telling viewers that they can cut their cable subscriptions without having to sacrifice news quality. So far, they’re succeeding.
