Apps that read the days news aloud arent exactly a new concept, but Newsbeat — launched today by Tribune Co. — is among the sleekest weve seen yet. Newsbeat pulls in thousands of articles every day from hundreds of newspapers including The Washington Post, The Los Angeles Times, and websites like CNN. When setting up the app, users pick their preferred news sources (the list of publications is massive) and topics theyd like Newsbeat to track. Often youll hear the entire story, but for content sourced from RSS, Newsbeat provides a truncated version with a link out to the website where its published in full.
