NewsBusters reader Mr. Snuggles has pointed out something conspicuously absent from Google’s various pages today – any reference to Memorial Day.(For link:click here)Obviously what we have with Google now is that they have let their 'power" get to their heads. Instead of being the information service they started out to be, they have decided that they should mold content to teach all us idiots on da web who r too stoopid 2 kno what it good and what is bad!I’m sure most Googlers are extremely aware of how Google will dress up its logo at its web search or news pages in honor of holidays or special occasions. Google has been known to do this on Halloween, Valentine’s Day, Christmas, etc. In fact, here is a display of all the Google holiday logos so far this year, and since 1999. You’ll even find that Google celebrated Sir Arthur Conan Doyle’s birthday just a week ago. For those scratching their heads, he created Sherlock Holmes.
Yet, if you go to Google’s home page here, or its news page here, you will see nothing commemorating today’s national holiday. By contrast, Google did honor the Persian New Year on March 21, as well as Louis Braille’s birthday on January 4.
Furthermore, if you go back through the Google archives, you'll find that, although it has over the years commemorated Shichi-go-san being celebrated in Japan, Bastille Day in France, and Korean Liberation Day, it appears that Google has never dressed up its logo for Memorial Day.
Why might that be?
Like the Mainstream Media they have gone from mere reporters, mere chroniclers to activists with the elimination of conservative sites and now deciding not to celebrate our armed forces as the fruits of their turn.
I am about fed up with these jerks!
Thanks for attempting to get google's attention...
and for the report here.
Their "baby Jesus" Christmas eve search was nasty.
Waaaay back in my early days, circa 1979 I met this gal with golden skin, drop dead gorgeous and eyes, eyes just like the ancient paintings on the tombs of the old pharaohs.
I asked her where she was from and she said she was from Egypt.
No moustasche there, just a 6.2' Goddess looking woman that took my breath away!
I would not lump the Middle East people as Arabs hairy and such;
There are genuine Egyptians, Persians, Assyrians, Mesopotamians still living among the majority of Arabs.
Just call an Iranian...Arab! See what happens!
Bla Bla Bla another words F Memorial Day. Nice
Yup, that's how it reads alright.
Ridiculous. Is Google so lacking in imagination that they can't come up with a reverent logo for Memorial Day? Their competition did.
As I've mentioned, Google is no longer on my favorites list. I'm not going to support an organization that goes out of it's way to snub the men and women who have died for this country.
censor reading in china and ignore American patriotic holidays.
what's next?
Somebody got through to them at least about this holiday.
It’s about time, eh? Let’s see if they do it from now on or not!
