Yahoo News Beats Google News In Jackson Verdict

Yahoo News Beats Google News In Jackson Verdict: "Yahoo News Beats Google News In Jackson Verdict
The fact that Google News uses automation to decide what to feature on its home page versus Yahoo employing human editors is often raised as a issue when comparing the services. In the case of the Michael Jackson trial, it looks like the humans won out. I've been watching both this afternoon to see how they responded to the not guilty verdicts in the case. All times listed are Eastern Daylight Savings Time."

I'm not surprized. Human editors make Yahoo News easier to read, easier to look at, more artistic satisfying, and in some cases, quicker to report the news.
