    Not to mention which standards?

    A standard that involves two minutes of checking the About page and seeing if they are a news organization.

    Google News standards?

    Google doesn’t have standards. They only follow whatever makes them a profit.

    Honestly, it looks like you can’t find fault in the article information, so you are making a respectability argument so you can attacking the source

    I am ignoring the content of the article and pointing out a very common problem with !worldnews@lemmy.ml. There is a ton of disinformation, propaganda sites, and web sites that are specifically pushing some agenda.

    And the first rule on this site is: “Please only post links to actual news sources, no tabloid sites, etc.”

    Stop Population Decline is not a news site. It is a web site for specifically designed for pushing an agenda.

      It is a web site for specifically designed for pushing an agenda

      So does Fox News, CNBC, MSNBC, etc etc

      Let alone that this site does publish news about Housing, Child Care, Paid Leave etc

      Google doesn’t have standards. They only follow whatever makes them a profit

      Except they have standards for their news aggregation service

      https://www.searchenginejournal.com/how-to-get-listed-in-google-news/379701/

      checking the About page

      “We also to report on current events and news related to population decline while dispute false analysis about what causes population decline”

      They still report on news about what they think related to their name

      Antitrust news sites report about antitrust

      Environment news sites reports on the environment

      Etc etc
