Okay so, most of us have pet peeves, and certainly one of mine is finding a news alert, something labeled "Breaking News" and then for the next two hours I get exactly the same story from 10 different news sources. It seems to me things are receiving a little out of control, and perhaps this really is one of the problems of having news media apps on personal tech devices, or subscribing to e-mail news lists of varied media outlets. Someone needs to correct this dilemma because it's getting so ridiculous, it's completely outrageous, and it is just a waste of our time as users to have to help keep deleting everything. Okay so let's talk.

Someone must produce an app which scans all what of the media news alert that you get, and does not deliver duplicate "breaking news stories" from multiple media venues. Let's say you take the New York Times, the local paper, the USA Today, and a few TV news stations' e-mail notifications, or sign up to their apps. In this case, if a famous person died for instance, the app would scan all the info in it and if there clearly was no new information from the last breaking news alert from a different media outlet, it'd simply send it to the deleted box.

Allow me to give you an example of why I even chose to write this article. Last week I felt an earthquake, it wasn't a lot more than about 40 miles away. Within 3 minutes, I obtained a news alert that there clearly was a 5.5 earthquake near here. I obtained this news alert before I even had time to go over to the computer to search Cal Tech's online earthquake reports, something that folks in California do a lot. Then, for what will need to have been an hour or so and a half I kept getting breaking news alerts from all sorts of news organizations like the New York Times dollar to naira, Washington Post, and Miami Herald.

Yes, I realize these newspapers are pretty far away, and it probably isn't an actual serious problem for them, however it sure seemed like lots of nonsense for me, after all, I felt finished over an hour or so and a half ago, I don't need someone to tell me there clearly was an earthquake. Further, it looked as if these were all duplicates, as if the Associated Press had typed it down and given into all of the newspapers, and they merely replayed it to all or any their subscribers' e-mail boxes. Enough is enough. Please contemplate all of this and think on it.
