Editor’s Picks in Google News
Google News readers in the United States would have noticed the new feature in the right hand column called “Editor Picks” which displays the original content that publishers have chosen from their publications. This has been the new change from Google adding variety to their presence of stories and multimedia on Google News.
The “Editor’s Picks” displays the best content that includes local and national publishers of news organizations. Unlike Google News which relies on algorithms, Editors Picks are provided by the publishers and not by the Google. A set of Publisher Feeds of popular newspapers like The Wall Street Journal, The Atlantic, The Guardian are available . The feeds displayed are chosen based on a variety of factors including your news preferences.
The “Editors Picks” were experimented last year itself and based on the recent experiment there has been a positive response from the readers and publishers. Google also encourages news organizations which are interested to contact their help center to get started.
