curated news

Selected news stories

Curated news is news content that has been selected, organized, and presented by editors or algorithms rather than delivered as a raw feed of everything available.

The curation implies judgment about what matters: I get my curated news from a daily newsletter rather than scrolling Twitter.

The term often carries either positive connotations (filtered for quality and relevance) or negative ones (filtered to confirm biases), depending on who's doing the curating and why.
