On Thursday, the Wall Street Journal reported something that, in hindsight, was completely inevitable: Google is rolling out a feature that allows media companies to publish material directly on its platform.

Fox News has worked with Google to post content related to political debates, for example, while People.com published posts related to the Oscars in February.
