As for general news, at least half of the stories served by Google alerts had to do with bitcoin price action -- which was a yawner as far as I could tell -- and the other half were lists like The 5 Greatest Moments in Bitcoin History (cointelegraph.com). No.1 was 'The Dawn of The Bitcoin Era (31 October 2008 - 12 February 2009)' -- who could have guessed that would be first? -- and you can read the article for the nos. 2 through 5.
As for 'news' -- with emphasis on the 'new' portion of the word -- the newsiest story was probably about bitcoin on the small screen: How Sony's New Show 'Startup' Gets Bitcoin Right (fortune.com):-
It was only a matter of time until someone made a TV show featuring bitcoin. Well, that show is here in the form of a 10-episode series called Startup, and, frankly, it does a good job of depicting the weird world of crypto-currency.
That story -- one of several about the show -- was complete with an embedded video and links to reviews. And that -- he said parenthetically -- was that!
