Hi levagency,

Thanks for bringing this up. However, Google News hasn't been available in Spain since 2014.

You can check out this blog post: https://europe.googleblog.com/2014/12/an-update-on-google-news-in-spain.html Or these news articles from the time:

Hey, I appreciate such an expanded answer/explanation. I guess they enjoy shooting themselves in the foot, just like sending THOUSANDS of Spanish Children to the USSR - during the Spanish Civil War - most of them would never be returned home. I just want to throw my hands up in the air and shrug the shoulders - ohh the "STUPIDITY"!!! Thank you again for a very extensive response.
