Google will pay for news

France-Presse (AFP), a global news agency, will allow Google, the leader in Internet search, to use content from AFP journalists.

Financial details of the agreement are not disclosed.

The deal will allow Google to use AFP content on Google News and other services that will increase traffic to sites featuring AFP news.

Last August, Google made the same deal with The Associated Press (AP), which meant that Google would pay AP for news and photos, but the financial details were not disclosed either.

Erik Scherer, AFP's strategic planning and long-term relationship director, said the service was useful because “the work of our journalists and photographers will be recognized,” he commented.

Google representatives said the deal "will allow AFP news content to be used in a new way, which will greatly improve the users' perception of news content on the Internet."
