Google News Update Brings Headlines Based On Location

Google News Update has brought some new advancements. Google News Update has brought location based news. Now, it will provide you the news from the selected topics of the place where you are right now.

Google News will start aggregating news from your local sources to bring you a more personalized experience. Google News providing local sources, you will now get the news the way you want it, you will get news from the  local sources rather than source fmo over the other country.

Google explained it as follows:

A great example of hyperlocal news is 9-year-old reporter Hilde Lysiak. Hilde made headlines when she reported on the story of a murder in her hometown which she published on her own local news site — Orange Street News (AMP-enabled to load really fast on mobile). Her reporting attracted the attention of major newspapers and morning shows like Good Morning America after she was criticized for being too young to cover hard news. It was one reason we invited Hilde to visit the Googleplex on World Press Freedom Day 2016. And just like Hilde, at Google News we are committed to connecting people to the news that matters most to them — be that local, national or international.

So you can see the changes by visiting the Google News on any device.
