Google prioritizing original reporting with an algorithm change
US search engine giant Google has changed its global search algorithm to highlight original reporting and keep these stories at the top of the news cluster for a longer period.
“In today’s fast-paced world of news, the original reporting on a subject doesn’t always stay in the spotlight for long,” Richard Gingras, Google”s vice president of News, wrote in a blog post on Thursday.
The company is also introducing new guidelines for its raters, over 10,000 people that review the search engine.
