Google has renewed its news content licensing deal with the AP this week, following months of negotiations.
The deal will allow Google to post full-text articles from the AP on Google News.

"We look forward to future collaborations, including on ways Google and AP can work together to create a better user experience and new revenue opportunities," says Josh Cohen, a Google senior business product manager.
Says the AP: "Under the agreement, AP and Google will also work together in a number of new areas, such as ways to improve discovery and distribution of news."

There was no word on the financials of the deal.

In January, after a negotiation dispute, Google stopped publishing AP stories. They began running them again in February.
