Better Broadcast.

The TV broadcast coverage now includes ‘designated market area’ (DMA) data for local US TV channels. We are also showing keyword highlighting in broadcast transcripts for easier scanning, and have made improvements to the legibility of the transcript.

Power Search

Users adept at writing complex search queries can now use more advanced search engine parameters, for even more specialist and detailed search results. Contact your account manager to enable this new feature.

Refresh your dashboard

Update the articles in the feeds saved to your dashboard without having to refresh your browser.

Improved styling For Better Readability

The Dashboard and Saved Feeds list now sport sharper fonts and a cleaner layout, including thumbnail images, to make it easier to scan the latest headlines.

Rolling Out Shared Dashboards and User Comments

We recently announced “Shared Dashboards”, allowing administrators to customize a common Dashboard, and “User Comments”, enabling users to add comments to news articles. Tomorrow’s update will introduce these new features to all customers.
