Google Tests Favicons For Top Stories

Google loves testing favicons, they do it all the time, and now Google is testing favicons in the top stories carousel. I am personally able to replicate it using my Mac on Chrome Incognito mode. Jon Henshaw first spotted it and posted it on Twitter yesterday.

Here is what it looks like:

Here is what it looks like without the favicons:

Google has tested showing favicons in search so so many times including 2018, 2017, in 2013, in 2009 and other times. In fact, we have skipped covering a lot of these tests many times because it is so common.

However, in this test, the favicons show in the top carousel and not in the main snippets.
