User Reviews
Google News is my primary way to stay informed. The Full Coverage feature showing multiple angles on the same story is incredibly valuable for getting balanced perspectives. The local news section keeps me updated on my community too.
Love how it learns what I care about. My feed is perfectly tuned to tech, climate science, and local politics. The fact-check labels help me quickly identify reliable reporting. Free and ad-light which is refreshing.
