Garbage in Google News

Two examples of garbage in Google News:
  • Fluff articles from blog hubs like the Huffington Post and the International Analyst Network. Let me subscribe to blogs directly via RSS please. Don't garbage up the easiest place in the world to see/review what the print world is saying. Further, that is why Google has "blog search."

  • Links to for fee research companies like Stratfor. I don't read Google news to get "teaser" content/advertisements from research companies.

Lexis-Nexis (if you can get hold of a subscription easily) is probably a better bet.
