Turn Up Your Support

Google has a new tool that lets you choose the sources you trust most. By selecting MPR News, you’ll make it easier to find our reporting across podcasts, articles and videos whenever you search.

Google launched a new program last month that lets you choose which news sources you want to see in your search results.

It’s called “preferred sources” and it lets you “customize your news experience in Search so you can see more of the sites you love,” 

It’s not going to remove other news sources when you search for all things Minnesota, but it will help put MPR’s relevant stories and information high in your Top Stories section, or in a section called From Your Sources on the search results page.

Public media is facing cuts and new challenges and your trust means a lot. By choosing MPR News as a preferred source, you’re supporting independent, fact-checked local journalism.

It’s a small step that makes it easier to find our reporting. We work hard to verify and clarify the news, and we want to make sure it reaches you.
