Good Daily operates AI-generated local news network without disclosure
Good Daily Inc., run by Matthew Henderson, operates hundreds of AI-generated local newsletters across the U.S. that aggregate and summarize news from local outlets. The newsletters use large language models without disclosing this to subscribers, and feature fabricated testimonials. Some readers reported being signed up without their consent. Local news outlets have criticized the network for not driving meaningful traffic and for undermining trust.
