Fortunately, I have the "news" feed disabled on my Contour screensaver because it's more about somebody's ideas of human interest than anything informative.
I agree a screensaver is an odd place to put death notices. Beautiful scrolling, decorative, interesting images blemished with "here's who's dead." It's a mixed message. It's like leadership at Cox doesn't sanity-check any lower-level ideas.

I just noticed screensaver news on app on roku, so it's not a cox product they just use it

Are we assuming only 1 software company makes a news headline program? I don't think so. Contour, Apple and Roku are all different platforms and it'd be hard to believe each uses the same company.
