Ratings and reviews

Extremely buggy with more than its share of intrusive ads. Terrible app. Too many ads that just won't close. But I don't see any real options to keep up with Badger news out here on the Left Coast so I'm reinstalling against my better judgment.

The new version of Badger Beat is just awful. All articles are interrupted by unrelated videos that hog nearly half the screen and waste bandwidth. If this continues, I will soon opt out.

Good concept. App freezes intermittently. Wait a sec. Today's paper made it sound like a new app available?! This is just a rebranding???
