I'm guessing all this breaking news is coming from madagascar. I mean really? When the rest of the world is infected and dead I doubt they'd have time or care about news.
A Guide to Platforms (Some is pretty obvious, but might help):
The shortest platforms are the ones with the explosions.
The platforms with cameras are the ones that take pictures.
The platforms with flags at both ends are the ones that have airplane Fly By's.
The platforms with cranes have sky divers.
Note: Fly By's and Sky Dives do NOT happen at night.
The longest platforms are the ones with two flags right next to each other in the middle. They are the only platforms I know of that you can "Triple Tap" on (Required for two achievements). During the day, they have birds, at night they have sparkles.
You can get double bonuses on all platforms except the ones with birds and the ones with explosions. You can get triple bonuses on the platforms with sparkles.
All other platforms are fillers with no bonuses given.
