    Hi Paul Yes it is a reasonable question and thank you to Malcolm for raising it. However I must put this in context: – Number of JP stories indexed incorrectly in this way: 375 – Number of JP stories indexed correctly by Google News: well over 100k, 7k+ from Scotsman.com alone That isn't to say that we are complacent on this issue and we are working to ensure all our articles are indexed by Google News correctly.

    Thanks for clarifying the numbers, Mark.
