What is Apple news?

This service is a one-stop for newspaper, media, and magazine articles from various publishers across the world. Hence, with this, you can choose to read to listen to them. In addition to this, you can filter your favorite magazines and news outlets, topics, and authors.

Here’s why Elon Musk is not pleased with it:

Recently, Ross Gerber, the CEO, and president of Gerber Kawasaki Wealth & Investment Management took to Twitter to reveal his disappointment at the app. “I canceled Apple news. A major source of negativity in my life,” he tweeted. Moreover, Musk replied to the tweet with a ‘Same” agreeing with Gerber.

However, it is not clear if he was talking about paid Plus version or, the regular non-subscription service. Moreover, a few followers tweeted that Elon Musk was their main source for the latest news updates.

Additionally, to add humor, a Twitter user shared a screengrab of Apple’s shares taking a huge dip after the spaceman’s Twitter confession. But, several hoped that the stocks did not take a hit from the newsmaker’s tweets.

Earlier last month, Musk showed his support for EpicGames, the makers of Fortnite which challenged Apple’s fees on the App store. “Apple app store fees are a de facto global tax on the Internet. Epic is right,” he tweeted. The smartphone firm also forced app developers to pay a 15 percent commission on their first $1 million earned in a year through the Apple App Store.
