***********************
Now.. a little about SANS from the developer:
If you're like me, you like your online news the way you like your coffee... the way YOU LIKE IT.
Stop Annoying News or "SANS" allows you to block online sources by domain (i.e. huffingtonpost.com or washingtonpost.com) or by topic keyword (i.e. "Kardashian" or "Alec Baldwin") from staying in your news feed.
SANS allows you to quickly add sites or keywords that you don't want to see. You have the option to 'fade' stories or remove them from view completely. It blocks the same content on both Google and Bing news portals.
If you have a question or feature request, please hit the SUPPORT tab and send me a message.

Reviews of sans - stop annoying news:
This might have been useful once, but at least as of 3/12/2021 it removes the text of the story but leaves the rest of the browser object intact (image, etc) so it looks ugly. If this is by design, then it's bad design, but I'm assuming that it worked in a more useful fashion once but a change to google news broke it.
Doesn't do anything to bing, still shows the trending news section or whatever that's called.
This is a great app that protects you from being inundated with depressing and disturbing news stories that is subconsciously harmful to your mental health.
