The reason Microsoft news is currently that popular is that our current users seem to be interested in Microsoft stories. The best our learning algorithms can do is assume that the next user will be interested in Microsoft stories as well.
Luckily, by voting + and - you can start personalizing your own news reading experience. After up or downvoting a few stories (try 5 to 10 stories) you should see a significant change happening.
Enjoy and keep letting us know what you think!

This app really suites me as a casual news reader. I don't have to look in 5 different places and sift through tons of news that I am not interested in.

I do think there should be a way to like or dislike a story from the channel list. I don't like to open the story and then select like/dislike/hide. What feels natural to me is having a menu come up when you press and hold on a story in the channel list with like, dislike, and hide available from there.

Anyway, great job guys.
