Google’s Suggestions to Access News Articles 

Comments by Google’s Search Partner say that It would be necessary to conduct research in the Google News Search Tab, using quote signs and sorting the findings by date, and that would be two different actions on top of simply looking for news.

You must first select the Tools option to filter by date, then choose Sort By Date from the drop-down menu. That’s likely not anything the ordinary searcher knows how to perform.

Somebody ran a search for [“WordPress vulnerability”] (with quotation marks) and afterward filtered the findings by date to see if it worked.

And it succeeded; Google was unable to deliver only news-related listings.

Concerns Raised by Other Users 

An individual who’s been a Google News associate for more than eight years expressed worry about problems that had been occurring for a little more than a month. The issue is with Google News whenever users go to the news area after running a search.

They could only find two recent articles if they entered their site’s title into Google News. The rest were quite old, despite the fact that they post roughly ten items per day. Earlier, there had been no such issue.

Another peculiarity was that when they ran a Google search on a term that interested them. The posts were displayed in the “Headlines” section, but when They clicked on “News,” none of their articles were displayed.
