Ratings and reviews

Apparently you care more about showing advertisements than letting us viewers read your news. The app doesn't load when I click on a notification. I am almost certain it's because the annoying ads are freezing and won't let you read the article. This has been an ongoing issue with 2 different phones. All you have to do is take away that stupid ad at the beginning. Everybody is going to click right out of the ad anyways so why even have it there?

Pretty worthless. It sends me notifications that I can only read a little bit of. And when I click on the notification, it takes me to the app but not that article. So now I know there was a multivehicle accident on I40. I have no idea where or when or how or anything else. The page the notification goes to is the traffic page and I don't see any articles with any such headline. Just got the app-now I've uninstalled. I see no point in being alerted about news I can't find info on.

When you click on any news item , it freezes up. Can't scroll up or down. Tried restarting the app. No good. Also , uninstalled and then reinstalled the app , still doesn't work. Now I remember why I uninstalled it a few months ago ! It's garbage ! I'll stay with WBIR and WVLT ! Come on WATE , get with the program !
