Ratings and reviews

Not bad, but not great either. The Internet has destroyed objective journalism, in general, and almost everything here is watered down. The only thing that's close to being objective is 60 Minutes (which, thankfully, is included), yet it's not easy to find a subject there unless you know the broadcast date or it's the most recent available broadcast of 60 Minutes. I'd like a chance to catch up on episodes I missed.

While watching it just closed and I thought it would hold my place like other apps but no, it started from the beginning. I tried to move it to where I left off and was immediately taken back and another commercial started. It was so frustrating that I decided it wasn't worth watching the program and just closed it down. If it had saved my place I would have been less frustrated by it shutting down on me but to add insult to injury I could not even move to where I left off. Needs improvement

UPDATE: after two years, same. while on my PC the app wants my 100% attention, it wo'nt work if I am multitasking, It wants to be the first window and will freeze as soon as i select another window. On the cell, same, but will not start unless I have my cell on the first position (vertical) if were to start horizontally it would fail to start. Shame on developers, the news people do a great service, but lack of proper app renders it as a fail. --each update comes with new failures, what a shame.

What's new

Fixed an issue where the live stream was showing a blank screen.
