Child Abuse Survivor Available in Apple News

ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

If you’ve already updated your iPad or iPhone to iOS9, Apple’s newest release, you may have noticed something called Apple News, which is Apple’s attempt to give you a pretty, magazine-like, interface to read your favorite sources in. Similar to what Flipboard is on mobile devices. Well, if you want to check out Apple News, might I suggest checking out this site’s channel?

You can find it by clicking the link below on any device with Apple News.

As of right now, the images aren’t showing up, but I hope once Apple moves publishing out of beta and releases some formatting tools, that I’ll be able to correct that. In the mean time though, all the posts from this blog, and the News and Reviews blog, can be located there!

    The coincidence that I spoke of came this morning, when I popped over to Twitter during a quick coffee break, and saw Rachel Denhollander, another survivor who’s made an appearance in a documentary, Athlete A, on her involvement with the Larry Nasser case, talking about this article:
