I really like the concept. It desperately needs a new name.

Beacon is a weak word, and Beacon Reader flows really poorly. It doesn't convey impactful journalism. It'd be proper for the #3 newspaper in Sioux Falls (if there were such a thing).

My two cents for what they're worth.

Baconreader... I'm not going to lie.. I expected this to be a reddit or rss feed.

Thanks, I appreciate you being straight up. Would love to know how the articles and writers stand up in your mind.
