Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: ONews at 100% against 世界日報 World Journal's 54%. ONews also leads on ads (none vs shown) and rating (5.0 vs 4.6). 世界日報 World Journal's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 1) and ratings volume (10K vs 1). On price, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
