Google News USA is rolling out an experimental feature that lets people or organizations who are part of a news story add a comment to the news. “Our long-term vision is that any participant will be able to send in their comments, and we’ll show them next to the articles about the story. Comments will be published in full, without any edits, but marked as ’comments’ so readers know it’s the individual’s perspective, rather than part of a journalist’s report,” Google writes in their Google News blog. This feature was foreshadowed in internal Google documents that leaked in 2006. To participate in this program, you can start by searching for your own name in Google News. For any story you find that you feel deserves a second view, you can then write to news-comments@google.com, including your comment, a link to the story, your contact details, and information how your contact information can be verified.http://googlenewsblog.blogspot.com/2007/08/perspectives-about-news-from-people-in.html
