Resumen
ABSTRACT – Google News is a controversial news aggregation service owned by Google. By analyzing 3,738,375 news stories added in the Brazil, Colombia, and Mexico editions from January to March of 2015, 2,246 news media outlets were identified. In these editions, specific to their countries, large, popular, and traditional news media such as G1 (under Globo.com), Terra Brasil, El Universal, ElTiempo.com, and Caracol Radio had the highest rates of news aggregation in their respective country edition. This meant that they had greater visibility as well as a higher probability of receiving traffic from it, above the other indexed news media outlets.
