NBC has announced that it is pulling the plug on its Breaking News app and social media accounts on December 31st.

The company’s co-founder and General Manager Cory Bergman said in a statement:

“We’re true believers of news that isn’t designed for clicks, but a service that helps people and companies make smarter, safer decisions.  As we discovered, such a model doesn’t fit with advertising, and despite a surge of interest in our premium data, the money has run out.”

Current employees will remain at the company and then possibly be employed at NBC in various positions.
