I don't quite see the library use (or even a personal use for me) of these tools. They seem like they gather stories by popularity within your "news" preference. I don't like that they say the articles are "news", when often they are purely entertainment. I don't like that they limit the stories you might want to read according to some preferences I clicked on. It seems very limiting and like I'm being lumped into a group. And subscribing to them clutters up my toolbar.
I can see using them for, say, looking at fresh knitting patterns, but I'll keep using NYTimes for my news. I'll also keep checking my favorite websites for my own favorite info.
In my book, these are a dud.
