OMG, thank you so much! Removes all the clickbait "news" from the CNN page!
Andrew W
Excellent add-on to warn about the trash on a leading news website that routinely makes terrible editorial and syndication decisions.
Julian Melville
Really helps take out the trash from the front page of the Herald. Doesn't get in the way.
Blair Strong
Probably the best NZ Herald plugin available.
