Automated News - The new Google News site, news untouched by human hands. By Jack Shafer

A very odd story by Shafer, who apparently only glanced around Google News a few times. He seemed convinced that the big news sites weren't on Google's crawler, though he later corrected this by saying he saw a Times story. (I assume the NYT, though he'd just mentioned the LAT as well.) But just using the search would have shown him that all the top sites were crawled. Sloppy, sloppy.
