  Isn’t it the publications themselves that contain the ads rather than the app itself?

    Some yes. Some no. And if I’m paying for news, there’s better not be any ads at all.

      Fair enough. Although I would say that the magazine aspect (which I use it for primarily) couldn’t really adhere to that. The printed publications that you’d buy in a newsagent contain printed ads. I’m not saying it’s good, but it’s not different. Paper copy or digital, you’re getting ads with whichever one you pay for.
