Hi Joe,
when you get stories from a news source you don’t want to see or about a topic you aren’t interested in you can tap the 3-dots icon in a corner of the story card and tap Hide all stories from [NEWS SOURCE] for hiding the stories from the source, or tap Fewer stories like this and the thumbs down icon for getting fewer stories on the topic.
You may need to take these actions several times so that Google News can learn your content preferences. More information on personalizing content is available here https://support.google.com/googlenews/answer/9005601

Hi everyone, Chris here - Google News Community Manager.
As Paolo advised earlier in the thread, you can improve what shows for you on Google News by following the instructions in this help article (summarized below).
In the "For You" menu:
- Under a story you don’t like, click More
.
- To see fewer stories like it, click Fewer stories like this
. (This option is not available for the top 2 articles in the "For You" menu as these stories are not personalized).
- To see no more stories from that source, click Hide stories from [the source]
.
.
. (This option is not available for the top 2 articles in the "For You" menu as these stories are not personalized).
.Please note that on Android this functionality is not available in the 3 dot menu once you have clicked into a specific article, it must be done from the "briefing" menu that shows multiple stories on the same page.
