Auto-detect Source? 5 Months, 1 Week ago Karma: 0  
I just remembered another suggestion - something similar was mentioned under a post talking about "alias"... Google News always puts the source of its feed in the title of each article. For example, if it retrieved a story from North County Times with a title of "Wildfires 80% Contained", Google would return a feed title of "Wildfires 80% Contained - North County Times".

It would be cool if that could be automatically detected and have the source stripped out of the title and added to the content's author alias field. Sometimes the article titles Google News sends get really long because they put their "source" in it. We rarely use Google News as a result, because of their titles and because they put their feeds into tables (see my first suggestion for details on the Google tables).

Thanks again!
