Hi Richard, I am looking forward to the new Apple news in iOS 9. One of the things I really liked about the Zeit app which seems to have carried over into Flipboard is the ability to like or block sources. Not only can you select topics of interest, you can deselect sources you don't want, FOXNews, MSNBC, whatever. I think the Apple news is going to be curated, isn't it? It still could be good. But I want to know where my stuff is coming from, and I like to have the ability to filter out sources that I just don't trust for one reason or another. Sort of like filtering out mail messages on mailing list. Smile. Mary
