When you sign up for Google News, your edition automatically includes Google-sold ads. You can choose to remove or keep these ads.
How it works
Google no longer requires that you set aside a minimum of 30% of your inventory for Google-sold ads. You can allocate as much ad inventory as you like, if any.

Navigate to the “Google-Managed Ads” section.
-
Under the “% of Google-managed ads” section, enter the percentage of ads you want your edition to be served by Google.
Tip: Increase the percentage to maximize the number of Google-managed ads displayed in your content. For example, changing the percentage to 100 means none of your ads will be served from your own inventory.
