The news itself will be created from content created by verified media publishers. “Snapchat does not offer an open stream of uncontrolled news where uncontrolled individuals or publishers can transmit false and misleading information to a large audience. “Discover has content only from verified multimedia publishers and content creators,” the platform said in a press release. Snapchat is currently testing the feature in India along with other regions such as France, the US and the UK. Dynamic Stories is also expected to come to more countries later. These stories will be available in English, Hindi and Marathi. The platform is reportedly working on adding more local languages to the mix as well.
