[Implemented] Disable "News" from the dashboard

It sounds silly, but it really hurts the overall experience.

Not silly at all. This is a complete 180 degree turn from what Plex is meant to be. It’s different from live tv because live tv is an extention of their DVR functionality which is getting the content the user wants.

This is different. This isn’t a live tv extention, it’s YouTube era fluff news from news sources who traffic in populist thought and mediocre journalism. It’s for people who have 5 minute attention spans and only want to hear their own opinion repeated back to them.

This is Plex bowing to their investor overlords.

And if I decide to leave Plex behind (I’ll give them 6 months) this ‘feature’ will be the reason.
