Google News app: How to stop annoying video autoplay

One of the things that really bugs me about today's various feeds (be they social or news) is the random auto-playing of videos that inevitably lead to embarrassing situations, scare my cats (or wife), or just generally annoy me. I use the Google News app on my Pixel 7 Pro  daily, as it's one of the many sources where I find news. 

You might not have ever bothered with the Google News app, but it's a great way to aggregate the news topics you like into a single location. With just a little configuration, you get all the news you want (and none that you don't). You can also easily share news pieces and save them for later. There's a Newsstand feature where you can find and add more sources to really make the most out of the app.

For years, I've found the Google News app to be a very pleasant source of information. Recently, however, I discovered more and more videos in the feed would surprise me by auto-playing.

Ack!

Did I forget to say how much I loathe autoplay? I've gone out of my way to prevent the auto-playing of anything on my phone, even to the point of keeping it on silent 24/7. It'sthatannoying to me. But even with the phone on silent, some videos manage to circumvent the setting and blare out their content anyway. Needless to say, that's a feature I had to take care of as soon as possible, otherwise, I'd risk tossing my phone across a room in frustration. Not that I would actually ever do that
