I find much reporting similarly painful. The style where they start with something like "John Smith was riding a bus to work [...]" and go on a whole narrative journey really annoys me too. For this reason I prefer sources like the Associated Press or Reuters. TFA could be replaced with https://www.reuters.com/business/apple-adds-bosch-cirrus-logic-others-us-manufacturing-program-invest-400-million-2026-03-26/ https://www.reuters.com/business/apple-adds-bosch-cirrus-log... for example. You can also ask an AI to rewrite using "neutral, factual, inverted-pyramid" style.
