Google News Ads

Google has recently been testing ads alongside their image search.  Now, they have recently announced ads showing alongside Google News results (News.Google.com).

This is likely more significant when it comes to generating high-quality traffic.  This is because just like with normal search, searchers are actively looking for information (content) on a specific topic.
