News in News Web Part not syndicating site news
Hey there,
I had a similar issue which I worked with Microsoft to investigate. In our case, our root site collection (yourdomain.sharepoint.com) is not being used as we are building on the modern experience. As such, we had limited permissions to that root site collection. Granting read access to my users to the root site collection, even though it isn't used and is not connected to my hub or spoke sites at all, fixed this issue. It's worth a shot!
I'm still having issues getting syndicated news to display. I am the global administrator and I've added every employee to a group. They can all access the sites, but the news that is supposed to syndicate up from the sites in the hub is not visible to anyone but me. I see a functioning news web part and everyone else see this blue box (pictured below).
