The Noise!
I thought there was something wrong with my car but it turns out it was the incredibly odd ambient noise on this podcast... I'm just gonna go back to morning edition

More news please
I would like to hear more news on international and national friends. I feel like we’re getting teaser stories for the Daily and missing actual headlines. And I feel like this has changed. I felt like at the beginning it was more actual Headline.

Friday quizzes
I love the Friday quizzes if people don’t want to do them they can skip.

Friday quiz
I really like Friday quizzes, they help provide me with a nice revision of the important facts in a fun way.
Thanks a lot for coming up with this awesome idea!

Drop the quiz already!
Great overall, always listen—but now I have to skip ahead over the idiotic quiz—WTF? Idiotic waste of time for something called “The Headlines”, and why I knocked a star off. Not every podcast needs to be “personally engaging”.

I like it, but….
I started listening to The Headlines after I jumped ship fromUp First, when the joking, personal, frightfully annoying repartée between the hosts drove me away. But now Traci Mumford is including some kind of attempted humor at the end of every show. I prefer listening to a good podcast from the New York Times, but I may have to read headlines and a bit more, since the times hasn’t yet started inserting this kind of attempt at humor into their printed content.

Too much bias
I am typically moderate, particularly on social issues. I used to listen to headlines and “The Daily.” Since shortly after the election, this “news” is so biased to the liberal viewpoint it’s borderline inaccurate, and definitely not objective. The NY Times is officially worse than Fox News on the other side and is just garbage. I’ve dumped all the podcasts I listened to them and no longer consider this “news” credible. It’s as much opinion as it is fact.

Wrong data
There had been 23 Popes named John not 21. Tha last one was John XXIII just before Paul VI.

Shame
Palestinian children are not “going hungry” they are being starved by the Israeli and US governments. Palestinian children are being murdered through starvation. Which is a war crime.

Love the show
I love the quick review of the news. It’s much easier on my stress level than a full news program. I also love how Tracey has been adding the funny comments at the end of the show. Keep them up!

Headlines, with an occasional funny line.
I’ve been listening to The Headlines since the beginning and I’ve been delighted with Tracy’s recent adoption of an occasional funny line. Her comic timing and delivery is top notch!

Zoo cruelty
Please leave out Texas zoo that captures and traps animals for human profit is doing a fund raiser where they will film a creature be eaten. I expect more from the NYT.

Left left left
Have to listen to other sources to get the whole story since this one only presents far left bias. 🙄

Ads?
Why am I paying for a subscription and on a ten minute podcast I gave to listen to a Walmart ad every day?
drrarrrrra
Listen every morning
Straight facts, no fluff. No fear mongering, no opinions, no insults, just simply THE NEWS

If the new paid tier has ads, I’m canceling
I’ll be fine with the paid tier if there aren’t ads anymore, but I’m not paying for something that still has has ads

Very biased
Reporting is blatantly biased
dbirenberg
Wish it started out with more local news!
Of course, the coverage is terrific, but it is always and mostly about foreign news and not so much about national news. It seems to always open up far away!

So amazing
Fast, acccurate, snapshot of news from over the world

Pretty strong bias
This show leans pretty far to left, and you’ll have to look elsewhere if you want a balanced, objective perspective. Case in point: on the 9 Sept 2024 show, when discussing the Memphis shooting, they mention the race of the victim but not the cops, then go on to make the absurd suggestion that the traffic stop might not have happened if a Republican TN lawmaker had acted differently…what?? It’s laughable how brazenly they show their bias.

A Bite Size Hit Of Quality News

Progressive and that is good for America.
Without this source we wouldn’t know the truth.

Nice adjunct for the Daily
Love the delivery and the thoughtful inclusion of the top stories of the day

Desperation REEKS
Your far left bias is not subtle and destroys your already shambles credibility. Bad job.

Informative and less ads than competitors!
Thank you

Good Democratic Leaning News
Concise delivery about American politics and topics. Democratic leaning..but what news source is wholly unbiased?
Overall, a good listen to catch me up on major news in the mornings for when I’m on a time crunch. Thanks NYT.

Unbelievably Obvious Bias...
August 13, 2024: “...Trump repeated false claims that the 2020 election was rigged... and hit familiar BASELESS talking points about border security and crime.” Funny how the word "baseless" is left out of the episode's transcript. Keep your BIAS out of "reporting" the news, if the Times can even call this that...

Please stop cutting off your guests…
If you want all the attention, have yourself as your guest on your show.

Easy and Informative
Varied content and expert journalistic brief explanation. As opposed to another review, I am not looking for light-hearted entertainment from this source. I appreciate the seriousness and relevance.
hubba_whaaat
Deeply biased, one-sided
Once cannot expect neutral, non-partisan news from NYT. Such a shame how they killed the whole organization with their whim to be deeply biased towards Democrats and spewing leftist propaganda and lambasting Right.

finally, perfect morning news show
This is the show I didn’t know I wanted, but now that it’s here I can’t imagine not having it. Great stories, well-balanced, tight and to the point. The perfect quick hit of news to start the day, with just the right balance of breadth and depth. Awesome!

Delivery needs some work
This podcast is a good idea, I just didn’t enjoy listening to it as much as my other morning podcasts. The delivery was a little too serious for a morning podcast. NPRs version of this type of podcast does a better job of bringing in some levity so you still leave the podcast in a positive mood. Maybe consider adding a cohost to lighten the mood? This isn’t the nightly news… it’s a morning show.
