Add for Compass Financial is disruptive

Every time I try to read the news, an add for compass financial constantly opens and interrupts what I was reading. Most of the time I’m not even clicking on the add and it just pops up out of nowhere and directs me away from the news and to the website of compass financial. I don’t need Compass Financial services shoved down my throat and interrupting my news feed. If I wanted your services I would seek you out. Now I won’t use you at all because you have ruined my news feed. Stop with the absolute intrusive adds.

Best in Charleston

I love the Count on 2 team. They are always quick with the top stories of the day and sending news alerts. Their app has the most local news of the main stations.

Poor app management

Pop up ads freeze up the app constantly

Please update. News is 10-12 hours behind.

Please update this app. Your Channel 2 needs to greatly improve this app.

Lazy reporting

Why are all your articles so negative. How about reporting some positive things? Also, how about being balanced. Your C19 coverage is like all the other hyper media. This has nothing to do with how contagious it is. It is about keeping the high risk people safe, not how many people get it. 80% of deaths are in nursing homes. That is where the emphasis should be. 99% of people who get it have no symptoms or mild symptoms. It is the flu, unless you are 70+ or comorbid.

Why do you not talk about how many people in the country have the antibodies? The CDC and many others have shown that the real number are about 10x higher than the number testing positive. So, that makes the ratios just like a very bad flu season. Look at the deaths in 17/18, and no one said a word that flu season.
