Ratings and reviews

I love this news source. Amy Goodman & group report crisply, ask important questions & keep it observational, what appears to be free from bias. The music is fun and heartwarming to watch in a news center, making the place human. That's a relief to watch. The app is simple & has an easy to use interface with no ad interruptions. It needs some brushing up. It gets stuck, though often the video continues to play but isn't visible. You cover news that often isn't covered elsewhere. Thank you.

A handy app for watching or listening to *one of the few daily news programs worth a damn*! Democracy Now has been doing commendable, independent journalism for nearly 3 decades. Meanwhile, most other media outlets have become little more than infotainment outfits--some awash with culture warmongering demagogues, others with apologists for the status quo. Not interested in spinning lies or doing public relations, Democracy Now stands apart from the crowd, always ready to hold power to account.

"No Internet" is constantly displayed at the bottom of the app even though my phone is connected to the internet. Why is that? Also, there are play stoppages frequently during the shows both audio only and video. I uninstalled the app and went back to just going the website to listen. The latter option is at least consistent.
