Google News won’t index solo journalists | Poynter.

Poynter posts an exerpt from an email in which Google News explains their policy against indexing individual journalists:

“We don’t include sites that are written and maintained by one individual. We currently only include articles from sources that could be considered organizations, generally characterized by multiple writers and editors, availability of organizational information, and accessible contact information.”
