Journalism provides that information when it matters the most, shaping our understanding of important issues and pushing us to learn more and seek the truth.</p><p>Google aims to make it easier to stay informed by using technology to organize what journalists are reporting about current issues and events. We don’t have an editorial point of view. Instead, Google products are designed to connect you with a broad array of information and perspectives to help you develop your own point of view and make informed decisions.
