12131News sites that automatically update while you’re reading
I recently noticed a couple of news sites, FoxNews and Daily Mail, I check daily that started updating automatically while I’m reading their articles. But that’s not the problem. The real problem is, while reading it and you’re already mid-article, the updating puts you right back at the top of the article. Very annoying. Anybody else experiencing the same thing with other sites?

nhtagmemberYep. Been happening for awhile so I just don't go to Fox any more.

Glynn863Fecalbook does the same thing often, when I go to "Feeds". I'll be reading a post, and "boom", back to the top and new info.

I get all of my important news from this really cool site called "SigForum". Everything I need to know is there, and it never does the auto-update thing to me. You should try it some time!

Guilty. I quit following the news outlets years ago. Less stress.

12131^^^ Guys, I get it. I heard this line a gazillion times before. But just imagine for a moment, if every single one of us sings the same tune, then what? Somebody has to get the news and posts them on here, you know? SIGforum doesn’t exist in a vacuum.

I’m a long-time reader of DailyMail but I’ve never seen that happen. I’ve certainly seen the article list update while scanning articles, but never an update while I’m IN an article.
I wouldn’t know about FoxNews.

Obviously
SOMEBODY is checking the news and letting us know...
In all honesty, I do check the Western Journal daily for important stuff, but 99% of the time it's already covered here, or just not that important. It is my "go to" website for news though... other than SF that is!
