I just wanted a basic review of recent events and this is so left wing. You’ll only hear one side the facts

This is turned into on of my favorites to listen to in the car or on the treadmill. Team does a great job of digging deeper into the story. Now, can we go 7 days a week please?

Apple News is another biased liberal news outlet. When will news channels go back to reporting the news and not the opinions of the Anchors. And I think that goes for both sides. I just want the facts not you trying to sway my views. I don’t want clips out of context to make it seem like your opinion is right. It’s gross. The anchors should be embarrassed. Especially now that they will have to back track on most of what they’ve said through the years.

Biased and garbage. This should be an apolitical update.

Everyday at work or on my way to work I listen to the Apple News podcast. It has become a very important part of my everyday routine. It gives all the important parts of the news in a quick summary. Can’t live without it!!

I listen to this on my way to work/school every morning. It’s a great mix of news from everything going on. Being able to listen to Shumita narrate in such a great way is always a joy

I know events going on in the world because of this podcast

The stories are always interesting and relevant and the reporting is thoughtful. Thank you!

This is a one sided non-fact checking nightmare.

I strongly dislike Trump and will not be nor will ever vote for him, but I hate that every time he’s mentioned, they’ll note any lies, while ignoring any “alternative facts” Harris says when she’s mentioned. It’s not helpful and a reminder of why people have frustrations with these news outlets. Trump is silly enough on his own, you don’t need to keep exaggerating it and ignoring your preferred candidates’ issues.

I normally don’t rate podcasts, but she asked. 1 star as a news source. 5 stars for a far left POV to news stories. So a 2 star overall. I listen to this podcast every morning to give me a far left perspective of the news. Multiple stories on Liz Cheney now supporting democrats, nothing on Tulsi Gabbard now supporting republicans. And this is just one of endless examples. So it’s a good listen every morning, just make sure you balance it out with something right leaning.

I listen to npr new every day. And I find Apple News to be lot more informative. I have been listening to this channel since day 1. A big shout to Shumita Basu. One of the best presenters.

Love to hear Shumita presenting the news but if comes to politics it makes me skip the episode each day when they try to turn listeners into kamala lovers.

Thank you. I appreciate your daily news summary.

Love this podcast my 1st listen of the day always!

It’s professionally produced and sounds great. Editorially it parrots the left leaning corporate media bias that you hear everywhere.

Best way to start my day.

My go-to morning news, I listen on my daily commute. Stories have a good balance of depth and variety, and Shumita Basu is an excellent host.

Excellent show, an essential part of my morning routine

This is one of the best news sources I turn to every day.

I enjoy Shumita and Gideon’s voices. Happy it is brief yet informative.

The show is wonderful. Quick, short stories that cover everything in the news worth noting; from politics, pop culture, sports, and everything in between – all within 10-15 min, perfect for your daily morning routine. Political bias is moderate-left. It’s not egregious and it’s more moderate than left – after listening to the show for a few years now, they are getting more objective overall. That said, politics is so polarizing today that objective coverage of certain stories may seem biased to a biased listener; so be aware of confirmation bias.

Great morning news round up without being inundated with ads.

Instead of reporting the news in the center. It constantly criticizes Trump and praises Kamala. Pro abortion news podcasters.

Apple News Today provides a mixture of news topics each shared with left-leaning bias. For most of 2024, each episode started with a segment on why you should feel bad for the people in Gaza. Then as the US election neared every episode contained a segment that could be labeled “Why you should vote Democrat”. Worst offense: On multiple occasions the title story will be a short segment at the end while half the show is instead covering whichever left wing topic they want you to hear.

This show does a great job summarizing things I may have missed through other sources of news, and also covers the large impact news stories that I’d expect in a news app. I appreciate the “this is also available in Apple News” because it’s a sign post of other things I may be interested in. I’ve also never found a podcast, radio show, or tv news that so deftly handles hard news stories. The music break following these kinds of topic is the perfect length and when they come back in is measured and calm. Finally, this is the most moderate news I’ve found, and if it leans one way or another it never tries to be sensational or accusatory. To quote dragnet: just the facts. And I love Apple News Today for that.

Morning routine and getting unbiased news and bring in people to tell you more about what it mean in the news

While I see that a lot of people complain about this being ‘left leaning’, I think people are forgetting that once you give context to news stories with interviews and additional information suddenly it feels like an attack to people who get their news from ACTUAL biased news outlets. This show finds a way to speak about major news stories with appropriate context in a concise and informative way. Shumita Basu is professional and has a soothing voice and I listen every morning!

I start ever morning by asking my HomePod to play Apple News. I love the quick morning updates on what’s trending in the news.

This station leans left and I’m not saying it needs to learn right either. I just wish it would be unbiased with politics.

All I keep hearing in these podcasts are reports on how great Kamala is and how horrible Trump is. How about being a bit more balanced? Noone’s perfect but could you report news and not opinion?

I enjoy listening to Apple News Today every morning to get a summary of what is happening in the world without the need to fact check.

Shumita is my favorite news podcast host by far! Does her best to not show her own biases unlike the NYT and Sabrina tavernese

I love Apple News Today, it’s my daily dose of the most important headlines with experts actually capable of delivering a real summary of the topics being discussed.

This is the best way to get bite sized daily news on the go!

Totally biased. Everyday it’s a Trump bashing / conservative bashing newscast. Y’all suffer from TDS.

I normally don’t like following the news because it’s always sad. I listen to this podcast every weekday morning to have an idea of what’s going on, and I really enjoy it. It’s concise, but informative.

I really enjoy the amount and depth of news they can cover in only ~12 minutes each morning. I wish there was less political content. Might be since we are closer to the election, but a good deal of the podcast each day is dedicated to politics when I am more interested in science-based news. Overall, it’s a great way to stay up to date and i’ll continue to listen!

Very moderate, objective look at the news. Keep it up!!!

There was a time not that long ago where a daily brief was just called ‘news’ and not up for debate as ‘propaganda’ by a portion of the listening public looking for shock jock, disinformation echo chambers, but here we are. This is a well sourced daily listen for current events, delivered by a warm-voiced, informed host. Great daily listen!

Very well reported and concise. In less than 20 minutes, it keeps me well informed each day about the news and trends behind them. Top notch reporting, journalism, and programming.

I wish I had found this sooner, all the cry baby’s having issues because how dare the news point out facts about their candidate. Keep up the good work, signed, a moderate.

I’m a daily listener. I’ll always go back if I miss an episode. The coverage is objective, informative, and well-delivered. I worry about folks who see it differently, since it would seem they have a propensity to see the world through the blurred lens of today’s most popular cult in the US.

I love how this podcast is produced. All of the hosts are great and have great inflection and manner of speaking. I missed Shumita while she was on leave! This podcast keeps me informed about a little bit of everything without being overwhelming and pessimistic. It flows nicely from topic to topic (As someone who worked on the ads side of a newspaper and tv station, I appreciate this!). A “must-listen” every morning. Keep it up, crew!

I enjoy listening to this in the am while getting ready for the day. Feel it’s a moderate listen

I’ve been listening to this show for the last year and half and used to LOVE IT. But, now that election season has come - I found the show to be incredibly biased towards Kamala Harris’ campaign. The only time Trump is mentioned is when it is in negativity. Sometimes it’s irritating to listen to because the news used to be a platform that reflects both sides of an argument/situation and gives respect to both sides of an argument/situation. I am someone seeking for a middle ground in today’s times. Really upsetting seeing the spiral downwards this show takes when they involve politics. All is said with love. Thanks 🙏🏽

Eww, the clear hatred of President Trump shows in this joke of a news podcast. Meanwhile a literal imbecile is praised. The latest podcast was a joke. Let’s put the woman who has done nothing to fix this economy back in for another 4 years so she can run this country into the ground. Oh, and while you’re at it, go ahead and raise taxes! Ha!

I start my morning off everyday with this show. It’s great information and isn’t too long. Awesome content

I love that I can listen to this podcast each morning and get a quick—moderate—update on everything from politics to economics. There are often snippets of experts on who offer data and facts. This is reassuring, as many news outlets have moved further and further in the direction of op-eds. The host even offers research-based facts and nuance in instances where their source information seems misleading or unbalanced. That I can respect.

Nice try… I like hearing news but don’t need extra opinions leading to the “left” It seems if a political story it’s yet another source of the media pushing their “candidate “
