New app with FT, Economist, Bloomberg content launches

A new app offering content from the Financial Times, Bloomberg and the Economist for a single monthly payment has been launched.

Charlotte Tobitt of the Press Gazette reports, “Mogul News bills itself as offering access to ‘the world’s best journalism in one app’, bringing together newsbrands whose content is behind a paywall under one ‘simple and affordable’ subscription of £9.99 per month.

“The team handpicks what articles to feature on the app from news publishers’ feeds, choosing which title has the best coverage on a particular topic and ensuring contrasting opinions are included.

“‘We think there isn’t a better time for journalism,’ founder and chief executive Rav Singh Sandhu told Press Gazette. ‘The amount of content we have being published is phenomenal.

“‘It’s just more about making it more digestible, making it more accessible, reducing some of the overwhelm, and just using things that haven’t necessarily been applied to media or journalism, like great design, great user experience, flexibility in pricing and real transparency.'”
