The Home screen will give you all the stories that are happening right now. The text is easy to read and if you are experiencing issues you can adjust the font size through the Settings at the top right of the screen.

Through the menu you can view every news topic, with it's own specified sub section to get the news stories you want, when you want it. All the images are wonderfully rendered.
