Google Assistant Tips to enhance your News Experience

To listen to a specific news provider, you can use commands like “Listen to CNN” or use “Listen to Politics News” for a certain category.
You can also use voice commands such as stop playback, resume and pause with the usual voice commands. Since the news you hear is recorded earlier, you have the liberty to use the Next or Skip command in case if you are not interested in any story.
