FAQ: How Often are Headlines Updated?

StateNewslines is a quick, convenient way to stay current with all the news in your state. Many users have asked how current are the news headlines?

More than 90% of the news sources we monitored are updated each hour. You’ll see a small timer underneath each news source showing you how long it has been since the last update.






It takes a fair amount of processing time and bandwidth to search, parse and aggregate these public headline links for you - so we’ve set the maximum threshold for updates to one hour. If you need even more current news - simply click on the name of the news source and it will take you directly to the content provider where all the latest news is posted.

Several publishers such as weekly newspapers and many magazines are updated less frequently. In those cases, we run a daily search aggregation to look for new news articles and update your news page daily for those publishers.
