Is anyone else experiencing this? It's like more media brainwashing. The last iPhone update I did changed my phone in a lot of annoying ways. One of them directly going to their chosen list of news articles for the day. The list changes throughout the day and is mostly CNN articles. There's some New York Times and Washington post and once a week something from Fox. Apple must be in cahoots with CNN

I'm assuming you are swiping left and not hitting the home button and you are seeing the news widget...
That's just a widget for an app and you can change the sources. Also, hit the home button to unlock now.

I hit the home button and then I have to type my code then the news pops up then I have to hit home again. I have it in a folder titled apps I don't use but it still comes up. I'll fish around to disable it
I have to admit that I can't help but read the articles a lot of the time. I'm sure this is the case with many other iPhone users
Here's a quote from one of the latest articles - it's so backwards, it almost confuses me
"While the angry tweets, therapeutic Instagram testimonials and fiery speeches may comfort their fans, these left-leaning celebrities are also inadvertently energizing the opposition. Conservative news outlets — most notably Breitbart News Network, the right-wing populist enclave — are perfecting the art of sapping Democratic stars’ name recognition and repurposing their words and actions into pro-Trump material. The enormous reach that celebrities enjoy, and the privileged bubble they live in, is wielded against them here, refashioned as evidence of the outsize control that the rich and famous have over regular Americans.
This new battle in the culture wars is being waged not by bombastic, big-name right-wing commentators like Rush Limbaugh, but by nimble, often nameless online aggregators who quickly churn through popular culture and throw the most evocative stories to their readers, often without much commentary. All it takes is a pointed headline, an unflattering photo and a few well-chosen (and real) quotes. Like this: “Lady Gaga Protests on Sanitation Truck Outside Trump Tower,” read Breitbart’s headline for its article on her tweet."
So now we are online aggregators by posting "well chosen real quotes"
How backwards is that?
Examplf Gigi hadid or whatever her name is mocks the First Lady elect on the AMA awards and we post the video of it and WE are the agitators?
Trump can't eat a steak nor McDonald's without getting picked on, but Gigi hadid can poke fun at Melania's accent and face, but we can't talk about it? Don't be aggressive towards Gigi! That's bullying!
