A plain-language explanation
Google News is a service that aggregates news from many publishers and organizes them according to topics, location and user interests.
Where it helps in practice
Google News aggregates reporting by source quality, topic and freshness, but inclusion does not guarantee distribution for every article.
The decision before implementation
A publisher should expose authorship, update dates, editorial policy and stable article URLs.
How to verify the result
Monitor news indexing, article visibility, technical errors and engaged visits rather than article volume alone.
