Deseret News 4+

I wrote a review 3 years ago for this app, (See below). And in the intervening period they continue to make improvements and enhancements. It is my go-to source for Utah and Mountain West news, but they are also a good source for breaking and key US news as well. If I were allowed only one news source (not likely unless the president shuts down every news outlet he hates) it would be this Deseret News app. Bookmark it. Put it on your home page. "SCA" it. (Single Click Access).

I have lived all around the United States (in 9 different states to be exact) and have sampled local and national news in a variety of formats during those 30+ years. The Deseret News electronic edition is one of the top few in content, design and delivery. And it keeps getting better. I wouldn't be surprised to find it in the top 5 nationally in a variety of categories. I wouldn't let its geographical location keep it from becoming a regular read for individuals regardless of location or persuasion.

My husband and I have been loyal followers of the DN and even had actual papers delivered to our home for decades. Unfortunately, we have witnessed the DN become a more liberal (“woke”) newspaper in recent years. I was especially put off by the continual “harassing” of President Trump while he was in office and which continued throughout the Biden term. Don’t get me wrong, I have never been an “all in” Trump supporter. But no president has ever been so harassed as he was and is. And it was obvious that he was put on trial for so many things just for political purposes. No wonder the American public finally said “Enough is enough!” and voted him in for a 2nd term. I hope he will receive a turnaround of media support in his 2nd term and the harassment will stop.

Because of this, I read the DN less and less as I have less trust in what DN reports. One exception has been the reporting of Jennifer Graham. I consider her to be a true journalist, trying to report fairly and unbiased news.

I have grown weary of most all the media and big corporations falling into the progressive, “politically correct” ideology at the expense of true conservative values that our country was founded upon. Please DN, I implore you to return to your more conservative roots and values and if you do this, I promise to become a more loyal reader of the DN once again.

So first of all, I open the app, keep in mind I have never had problems with it before and it crashes, I didn’t think anything of it and I check my WiFi to go back in. As I try to log in the entire app keeps crashing! I have never had a problem with my WiFi I even checked it multiple times, but this honestly was ridiculous. This started about a week ago as-well so it was kind of annoying to have it not work.
As for their buyers opinions they are incredibly bad. You might be asking why I downloaded the app if I knew this was gonna happen and to be honest, I didn’t. I always used the news in the morning just to see what’s going on in the world, but everything at Fox has been escalating really quickly and they are BIG trump supporters. So be that as it may, they are showing pictures and clips of protests (which are SAFE because I have been to a few and everyone has a mask and gloves) saying that all of the black people are incredibly violent which isn’t true at all. Also saying that protesters are killing the earth because we aren’t at home.
This honestly isn’t a good news app at the moment, please try looking somewhere else for something better because it’s incredibly sad to see all of this going on.
