We recently became aware that your site offers a Google News feed to the public.
We appreciate your interest in Google News, but we do not currently permit the creation of a news feed from the results on Google News, nor do we permit webmasters to display Google News headlines on their sites. We provide a means for monitoring Google News searches through Google News Alerts at: http://www.google.com/newsalerts and encourage you to use this service instead.
For more information about acceptable uses of Google News, please see our Terms of Use at http://news.google.com/intl/en_us/terms_google_news.html .
If you'd like to incorporate Google News search results into your site, we ask that you do so by creating a link to the Google News main page or Google News search results. Please feel free to use any of our Google logos found at http://www.google.com/stickers.html .
As always, your feedback and comments are very important to us. Please let us know if you have any questions or concerns.
Regards,
The Google Team

Hope the're patient because there's not much I can do until we get back ...
