There are so many websites I visit because they were linked somewhere. I’m sure if Google stopped listing these websites I would never purposely visit la times or Washington post. Or especially local affiliate websites when there is some breaking news somewhere local. Who would know to go there?

I can only imagine it would be even more of a death blow to any news website that is local rather than national and not a top news source that people know by name enough to type in.
