This app used to be good. Now, with WAY TOO MANY ads! You can't even go to another part of the app without a pop-up ad. I am beyond tired of seeing NST ads. Enough already! UPDATE - app also sends a notification of a news story, only to click on for that particular story, only to get a totally different story. Somebody should fix this.

action news 5 is good, but opening the application, ads popping up and no way to skip the ads, I want to see what it's going on right now. not ads. again cut the ads to none.

The old app was fine. This one freezes when you are scrolling thru an article and when you click on an article in notifications you want to see it takes you to another one. Why chg? If it ain't broke don't fix it.
