Google News Search Not Working

Google News is not returning indexed results for search queries (example for “google” query). I’ve been noticing this for the past 5 minutes, anyone else?

Update : It seems to be working again, but sporadically. Out of 20 refreshes or other searches, I’ve been served the above error message 30% of the time. I wondering if there is an update on the way at Google News.

I haven’t seen any issues on this end, including the link you provided for “Google”.

It’s been acting up since yesterday. At one point it would do a regular search, but mess up when I’d sort by date. I’m not sure what to make of it.

Yes. It is frustrating as hell. It hasn’t been working for at least the past 5 days. I use it 3 times a day!

Yeah, its good to see that others are having this issue. Because I thought something was wrong with my IE, virus or something.
