Use these simple search options to find exactly the news you need.
Quotations
Putting multi-word phrases in quotation marks will return matches that contain that exact phrase:
AND / OR
By default, multi-word search phrases have an implied “AND” between each word, meaning that all must appear in the results (so, typing Senator Barack Obama is the same as typing Senator AND Barack AND Obama). But you can also join words or groups of words with OR, in which case either of the terms can be present. The keywords AND and OR must be all-caps:
- Hillary OR Barack [returns all news with either name]
- Giuliani AND Romney [returns all news with BOTH names]
- "Paris Hilton" OR "Lindsay Lohan" [again, returns all news with BOTH names]
Grouping Terms
Search terms can be grouped using parenthesis. This can help when constructing more complicated searches:
Title-Only Searches
By default, your search terms apply to the entire text of an article. You can also search only article and blog post titles, as shown below (note that the keyword “title” must be all lower-case):
NOT
You can require that a term not be in a search result by using the keyword NOT:
Fuzzy Matching
You can also perform fuzzy searches by using a tilde (~) after the word. In the case below, searching for “feast~” will also match “fest”, “feat”, “feist”. This can be a useful way to search for names that have a variety of spellings:
