NEW VERSION v.37
***PLEASE*** If you find something that isn't working properly, please let me know before rating SANS poorly. Your feedback helps us make this product better! ***
That being said, I realize that many of you are here to purposefully sabotage this free offering with negative reviews and one star ratings. Which is sad as it took many hours of work to create SANS.
SANS works on GOOGLE and BING news ONLY.
I hope SANS helps you!!
If you like SANS please take a moment and give it a good rating :-)
***********************
Now.. a little about SANS from the developer:
If you're like me, you like your online news the way you like your coffee... the way YOU LIKE IT.
Stop Annoying News or "SANS" allows you to block online sources by domain (i.e. huffingtonpost.com or washingtonpost.com) or by topic keyword (i.e. "Kardashian" or "Alec Baldwin") from staying in your news feed.
SANS allows you to quickly add sites or keywords that you don't want to see. You have the option to 'fade' stories or remove them from view completely. It blocks the same content on both Google and Bing news portals.
If you have a question or feature request, please hit the SUPPORT tab and send me a message.

Latest reviews
- (2022-03-07) Damian Damianio: This is the best addon I have ever downloaded. Now I can blacklist the C nineteen word. All these reviews saying it doesn't work must be outdated info cuz here in February 2022 it works! however it doesn't like special characters which is unfortunate since this makes blocking ï (i with 2 dots) not possible
- (2021-03-12) Mark Grant: This might have been useful once, but at least as of 3/12/2021 it removes the text of the story but leaves the rest of the browser object intact (image, etc) so it looks ugly. If this is by design, then it's bad design, but I'm assuming that it worked in a more useful fashion once but a change to google news broke it.
- (2020-03-25) Allen Awesomeness: Doesn't do anything to bing, still shows the trending news section or whatever that's called.
- (2018-09-30) Mickael: Seems to be working great so far. It completely removes the topics you don't want to see which is what I wanted to do. You just need to enter keywords like "Trump" "Kavanaugh" or else and you won't see it anymore
- (2018-06-08) Chris Ryan: This is a great app that protects you from being inundated with depressing and disturbing news stories that is subconsciously harmful to your mental health.
- (2018-05-20) Jeff Walters: I appreciate the effort, but would like the filter to work across sites such as Yahoo.com
- (2018-01-16) --: Changed results it wasn't supposed to change.
- (2018-01-11) Thank you!!! There was just one news source I found egregious enough to want to block, but it kept appearing in my Google News. It has gone away! Thank you!!!
- (2017-12-12) Maverick Rider: It will not stop Googles "TRENDING NEWS". It doesn't even recognize it.
- (2017-05-09) Guy Krenn: This extension is a dream come true! I went looking for a solution for the numerous inane fake news headlines from The Washington Post that were appearing on Google. Finally, I'm free of their lies! And ba-bye to CNN and the failing New York Times, too! THANK YOU FOR MAKING THIS!
- (2017-02-13) The One: Works very well at blocking fake news such as CNN, NYTimes and Washington Post from Google News Top Stories.
- (2017-02-07) Mike Tipsword: It simply dont work.
- (2017-02-01) J M: It's just 'ok' at best. Too much is breaking through to call this one a 'win', but with some work and it actually blocking sites it'll get five from me.
- (2017-01-13) SharpestBulb: HAH! This actually works! So sick of cnn, huffingtonpost, npr and ap. They deserve an ISIS style execution.
- (2017-01-10) Matt Noble: No more Trump, Kardashian, Jenner. As a test I put in cnn.com and did some searches. This is a great way to filter out sites like CBN and other conspiracy theory sites.
- (2017-01-10) Clean Locs: Does not work. Added Kardashian to the list and even used your right click filter and they STILL show up in Google results. I deleted your app.
- (2016-12-27) Ned Saley: I tried to block Kartrashian family on Daily Mail UK and it did not work
- (2016-12-22) K Rubens: Finally a quick and easy way to filter out the "fantasy news" sources and get the the real news!
