3 responses to “Exclude specific news sites from Google News search alerts”

  1. I couldn’t get this to work. I can specify a site to include (e.g. site:guardian.co.uk), but i can’t specify a site to exclude (e.g. -site:dailymail.co.uk). Google News just returns “Your search – -site:dailymail.co.uk – did not match any documents.”

    Any ideas how I can get this to work?

  2. I used -source:financial_times
    It works with the ‘-’ to remove the source or without the ‘-’ to only include the given source and exclude all others (ie. source:financial_times will give you only news from ft.com).

    I have no problems with the information provided by ft.com but they only allow you to view one story per month with out paying for a subscription. With all the news sources available I don’t need their stories that bad.
