Hi, Russ. Is any more new news coming up? I want more news!
Sash
You're in luck, because more news is on the way! We publish new articles every weekday! 😄
Russell Kahn
What do you do in your job, Russ?
Davis
In my job, I research the facts about news stories. Sometimes, that means I got to events to see what happens. Other times, I listen to people who have been to events. I also find experts for the topics in our articles and I talk with them. Then, I spend my time writing articles. I look for pictures and videos for the articles too.
Russell Kahn
Hello, Mr. Russ. I would really like to know more about history. Can you please write more about that?
Kensi
Absolutely! History is a very important subject! You can expect to see more history articles in the future. What are your favorite time periods to read about?

Hi, Russ. I’m Stella! I was wondering what state you live in and what the culture is there? P.S. Happy Halloween! 👻🧟‍♂️🎃
Stella
Happy Halloween, Stella! I live in New York -- specifically in New York City. There are hundreds of cultures here! That includes Italian, Jewish, African American, and Hispanic cultures. There are as many as 800 languages spoken here. So you can imagine all of the different cultures!
Russell Kahn
Sup. Hola, Russ. Can you make a book in Spanish for my cousin in my school?

Ahoy, Russ. How nice to see you! I'm Laura, from China. Are you interested in China's history?
Laura
Ahoy, Laura! I'm glad to hear from you! I do think China's history is very interesting. Do you have any facts about it you could share with me? You can learn about China's history on News-O-Matic by searching using the word "China."

Hi, Russell. I wanted to tell you a question about spiders 🕷️. Why do spiders make webs?
Elianna
Spiders often make webs to catch food, Elianna! Bugs like flies get caught in the webs. They become a snack for the spiders! But here's a fun fact — some spiders don't actually make webs at all! They have other ways of catching food. For example, one spider species is called the trapdoor spider. Instead of spinning a web, the spider burrows into the ground! 🕷️

Hello, Russ! Do you like Paris!? (If you ever been there)
Lauren
I have been to Paris, Lauren! It's a great city to visit! Paris is similar to New York in many ways. However, the city also has a very unique history and culture!
Russell Kahn
Say, Russ, why is media so huge? I am Violet by the way. And I love asking questions, but you never answer me.
Violet
Sorry, Violet! I get TONS of questions, and I do my best to respond to as many as I can! "Media" refers to all the different ways people can share information. It's a big term because there are a LOT of different forms of media! These include newspapers, books, television shows, social media, and even video games! 🎮
Russell Kahn
Hey, Russ! Is the Halloween writing contest the only writing contest you do at NOM? I think I asked this last year, but I never got a response. Thank you!
Reagan
Hey, Reagan! Sometimes News-O-Matic holds other writing contests, but the Halloween contest is one that we have every year. Did you write something for the contest? 📝
Russell Kahn
Dear Russ, I loved two articles. One was the one about Tesla. I loved it so much. But are there any more articles about Tesla? Second, I loved the article about ancient Egypt. Are there any more?
Ayat
I'm so glad you loved those articles! We have MANY more articles about Tesla and ancient Egypt. Try searching for them by typing those words into News-O-Matic's search!

Russ, how much money does it cost to buy a Moflin toy?
Julia
Casio says it is selling the A.I. robot for about $400. Did you read News-O-Matic's article about the toy pet?
Russell Kahn
Hello, Russ. Do you like anime?
Jovanny
Yes, I like anime! My daughter Aubrey helped me get into it. The big anime films that I enjoy were made by Hayao Miyazaki and Studio Ghibli. We have a few articles about them here on News-O-Matic!

Hey, Russ. I'm Landon, and I'd like to ask how are hurricanes formed?
Landon
Great question, Landon! Hurricanes are powerful storms that form out over the ocean. Warm waters can give energy to thunderstorms. This leads to bigger storms and faster wind speeds. That's why the Atlantic hurricane season happens during summer months in the top half of the world!
Russell Kahn
Hi, do you know how to make kimchi?
Lillian
There are many ways to make that Korean dish, but here's one way: first, you have to cut, salt, and wash cabbage. Then, mix together seasonings and cut some onion. Now mix everything together and store it in a jar until you're ready to eat it. Have you ever made kimchi?
