Best News Widget?

im looking for a good news widget that works good doesnt use to much battery and that had a decent sized widget not just one thats like the size of the power bar bigger then that

anyone with recommendations
 
I searched through a ton of news apps and the few that do have widgets are all the same size as the 2.1 widget. Any that used to be larger have been shrunk in size. I would suggest just grabbing the 2.1 apk as it is one of the few that actually scrolls headlines within the widget, and it does a decent job of tracking custom topics.
 
that widget sucks and just gets stuck on a single story, at least on the htc incredible.

why are there no fullsize widgets?
 
I am not joking when I say this: Find the right folks on Twitter, follow them, and use the official Twitter app for Android made by Twitter.

Makes it easier than sifting through a widget with limited news sites, or having a resource hog like one that subscribes to well over 50 sites simultaneously....
 
Well the News and Weather widget from google is broken, otherwise that was the best one
 
Is there an official release acknowledging that Google knows it's broken? Or is this something that's just floating around the forums? I hate having a broken widget, especially when it was my go-to news widget. So, I'm particularly interested in any equivalent replacement as well.
