YouTube arrives on Google News after outage

Update at 7:27 a.m. PDT: Outage is confirmed, and further details have been added.

Google News was inaccessible for many on Thursday morning. But when it re-emerged, it sported news videos hosted at YouTube.

Some news headlines now feature a small YouTube logo. Clicking on it triggers an embedded YouTube player with the news, though my attempts involved a long lag between clicking the icon and getting the video.

Videos were from professional sources including The Associated Press, France 24, United Press International, and WIVB in Buffalo, N.Y.
