News from unreliable sources. Let us manage sources in Cortana, please!

Here is an example of how biased towards Fox News it is right now from yesterday night to this afternoon. 6/7 notifications were from FOX News.

2/28 - 8:04PM : "Girl, 18, hit with manslaughter charge over friend's suicide." - FOX News

2/28 - 8:37PM : "Three Missouri Shooting Rampage Victims identified as Members of One Family" - NBC News

2/28 - 9:06PM : "Leonard Nimoy, who died at 83, gets Vulcan hand salute from Space Station." - FOX News

2/28 - 10:02PM : "Reports of possible deal in DHS funding reignites chatter about Boehner ouster" - FOX News

3/1 - 7:49AM : "California couple dies hand-in-hand after 67-year-long storybook romance" - FOX News

3/1 - 10:46AM : "Completely blind dog returned to owner after 2 weeks in frigid weather" - FOX News

3/1 - 12:01PM : " Thousands march in Moscow to mourn slain Boris Nemtsov" - FOX News

The California couple one has popped up several times over the past few days.

This is representative of my experience thus far with Cortana News and it has become especially noticeable since I've been wearing the Band.

The same for UK Cortana. I don't want my 'news' sourced from red-top newspapers or The Daily Mail.

The most annoying thing is that I spent loads of time setting up the News app (I use Weave as my default), because I thought if I set-up my preferences through there, Cortana would 'learn' or at least use this when fetching news for me.

Annnnnd nothing.

So yes, managed news sources would be lovely.

Yeah, even though I have disabled Fox News as a source in the MSN News app, that's all that gets pushed to my band it seems.
