The move comes after Google relaxed its "first click free" policy last year and announced its plans to share revenue with publishers that make use of its new subscription tools. The company has previously come under fire from news outlets that claimed they were at the mercy of the search engine, but recent steps from Google -- including this one -- show it's keen to rectify matters. Of course, it's not switching things up out of the sheer goodness of its heart. At a time when fake news is rampant, people are looking for trusted journalism, and that's a demand that can be capitalized on.
