OK, not being a member of the Apple cult, I was unaware of Apple News.
Apparently what you have is Apple News+.

It seems to give you access to a lot of newspapers and magazines that would
normally be behind their own paywalls.  It also allows family members to
share your subscription.  So it may be worth $9.99/month.  Assuming your
family still reads, rather than consuming everything as video streams,
Instagrams and Tik-Toks.  Or maybe I should say assuming your family still
reads long-form publications rather than tweets.

Apple can just randomly charge you?  Or did you have to agree to something
and put your ccard details in when you downloaded the app.  Which should
have thrown up red flags right there....

News.google.com is just an aggregator of stories from other well known news
sites.  Nothing to write home about.

 

Most "news" these days seems to be opinion, propaganda and ads.  They should
pay me to view it, not the other way around.

Apple news on my iphone charged me $10/month this morning.  Has been free up
until now.

May need to search for a free news feed for the phone now.
