Rather than news aggregation on a map/location, I'd rather have news aggregation per event across countries/regions/etc.

For example, Trump-Putin meeting is an event. I'd like news aggregation on this event on what every corporate and independent news publication across the world is saying. Currently, I am only able to get US/British news viewpoints or angles and I have to work ridiculous hard ( google search is terrible now ) to find reporting on other nations/viewpoints. I was curious how the chinese, arabs, israelis, indians, south americans, etc were reporting on the story because having been to europe and asia, I know that news is not the same everywhere. One good thing about traveling.

Google news used to do something like this until they were forced to limit it to corporate news and regions.

That was the original idea, it seemed too complicated to do at the beginning but now after working some months on the idea, I think it's feasible, I will add this feature in my future surveys to see who might be interested, thanks for the feedback, much appreciated :)
