How do I edit news sources for news widget

Hi,

Recently one of the news sources on my news feeds has started charging to read their stories.

This is particularly annoying as most of the time I don’t realise they are going to charge until I get halfway through the story and find the rest is blocked pending payment.

How can I stop news feeds from a specific source appearing on my news feed?

See below. Thanks



iPhone XS, iOS 12

Hi DoctorMk3,


​Thank you for using the Apple Support Communities. I see you'd like to prevent a particular news source from appearing in the News app on your iOS device.


You should be able to do this using these steps, from the resource titled Read the latest headlines in the Apple News app:


"While reading a story, you can tap the Share button and then choose Block Channel or choose File > Block Channel or File > Block Topic to stop seeing stories from that news provider or topic. To view your blocked channels or topics or to unblock something, go to Following > Blocked Channels & Topics on your iPhone or iPod touch; scroll to the bottom of the sidebar and tap Blocked Channels & Topics on your iPad; or choose File > Manage Blocked Channels & Topics on your Mac."


I hope I've answered your question.


Cheers.
