I live in Costa Rica, Amazon Echo currently provides only international news or news from the USA, I wanted the get local news so I decided to create the app, there are many english speakers living in Costa Rica, I just wanted to make the amazon Echo more useful for them.

The code is pretty simple, I get the news from popular newspapers using RSS format, and then I ask alexa to read them, this skill is already certified you can look for it in the Alexa APP, there's also a public repo

I'll be happy to answer questions about the code.
