Google is starting a licensing program to pay publishers for some content. The search giant on Thursday said it’ll pay publishers for “high-quality content” for a new news feature that’ll launch later this year. 

“A vibrant news industry matters—perhaps now more than ever, as people look for information they can count on in the midst of a global pandemic and growing concerns about racial injustice around the world”, said Brad Bender, Google’s VP product management, in a release on Thursday.
