@bugsounet Thanks Bugs. You can transfer. I will dig through the code and try to make sense of all your awesome work. I am humbled. :person_bowing:

[bugsounet]

@mumblebaj I have transert it to your github account.
Just accept it ;)

[mumblebaj]

@bugsounet I can’t seem to find it nor can I see any notifications for it to accept.

@mumblebaj @bugsounet MMM-News still works for me when you say you will delete it does that mean it will stop working? If so NBD I will use my man @mumblebaj module

[mumblebaj]

@swvalenti The module will not stop working.

[swvalenti]

@mumblebaj Whatever you do don’t update the module, mmm remote control showed update I just did that and it deprecated the module and no longer works!

[mumblebaj]

@swvalenti You can clone the module from here:
MMM-News
The config should still work.

The issue is with sources “Fox News”. That is not a valid source. Remove it and it should work fine with just the domain of foxnews.com
