That&#8217;s something the average searcher is unlikely to know how to do.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Google SearchLiaison<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/searchliaison\/status\/1465394702413287425\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">&nbsp;tweeted<\/a>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>\u201cWe\u2019ve identified a bug where searching with quotes while using the news tab and sorting by date would return content from across the web, not just news-related content. We\u2019re releasing a fix for this tomorrow, so it should be resolved by Dec. 1 or a few days after.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>To put it to the test, I performed a search for &#8220;WordPress vulnerability&#8221; (with quotation marks) and then sorted the results by date.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And it worked; Google was unable to produce only news results.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Need help with our free SEO tools?
