Google announced the launching of a new product called “Google News Showcase,” which allows news publishers to display their content for a fee.

“We’re dedicated to supporting local newsrooms across the US – from funding and supporting their business goals to helping people find and engage more deeply with local news content. Local news is essential to communities, and we’re committed to doing our part to support them,” Google said in a statement.

Google pointed out that the Google News Showcase is coming to the US this summer with partnerships with more than 150 US-based news publications, with 90 percent of them local or regional. (QNA)
