NBC4 Washington: News & Alerts

Being from Virginia born and raised I must admit I am biased. News 4 is hands down the best. Knowledgeable, comprehensive, fair and current. Living in Georgia the past three years has only made me miss News 4 even more. The news here is amateuristic if I can call it that. Very repetitive, ho-hum ,lacking enthusiasm and just plane second rate compared to News 4. I got sick of it, downloaded the News 4 app and I’m feeling like I’m back home in Virginia. It’s a great way to keep up with things back home as well as news on a national level. It’s the next best thing to being there. Keep up the good work News 4!!

For some bizzarre reason i cant figure out the app asked me to allow it to use my location to login to Facebook!!! I repeatedly have said no to this but it keeps coming back on to my screen over the news & weather stories i am trying to read. I know these people who made the app are able to get on to Facebook in other ways so they really do need to check security for this! Its been going on for months now & i'm so mad about this i had to post this. Please NBCUNI fix this app!!! There are too many problems & bugs & glitches with it. i like it & i dont want to have to ditch it but i will delete it if this "allow NBC4 to login to Facebook allow or cancel?" continues i will delete the entire app! Besides it takes up too much space! There should be a different weather NBC4 weather app anyway! Its the weather thats the best part of the app! Also please update the location & timing too because rain & snow is always at my location long before it shows up on the tv & the App! Please fix all this!! Thanks!! Otherwise still a great app but get rid of news stories that are from 2011 & a long time back. Archive that stuff offline please. Thanks!

This is app is easy to use and navigate as well as reliable information in terms of the weather. It is truly my “go to” if I didn’t catch the news in the morning or at night. The only improvements I see is an easy way to add locations and I wish I can see an estimated hr by hr for each day, not just the current day, to around the more likely times for precipitation. Of course, weather is never 100% predictable so I understand if the hr by hr is difficult to forecast in advance.

I liked the app for their weather radar which was actually the best for northern VA. Occasionally I’d check local news but NBC4 DC has ALWAYS been a left wing propaganda machine bashing conservatives, the second amendment and everything slightly aligned with the GOP. Their pro China support is expected because of NBC Universal’s partnership with China’s communist party. What was surprising is how they ignored the controversy of governor Blackface Northam’s racism in spite of being in a predominantly African American community. I blocked their cable station over 10 years ago and only downloaded the app on the recommendation of a firefighter friend. He too only used the app for weather radar. He left FCFD because he had no choice when his dues only went to support democrats like the aforementioned governor Blackface Northam.

In the recent Covid conditions, I have tried to ask ONE question and haven’t received a response. It’s been over a month. I have also asked the question to several anchors via Twitter (which I don’t usually use) as suggested, or this app. Nothing. Can I suggest a better way to ask questions!! Otherwise, I enjoy seeing the latest stories as they come through and the weather is always up to date.
