Research in other areas (product advertising etc.) finds that most search users click on only options in the first 3-4 items of the first page of search results, and hardly ever on anything beyond the first page (10 results). Thus, the power to control what people see as the first 1, 2, 3 items in search results on news, candidate, and political topics is an enormous power.

That is only one aspect of this, and not nearly all of what the video was aimed at in terms of shaping voting behaviors, but it matters that Leftists are controlling so much of the information flow to the public.

There is no federal statute for stupid people being manipulated. Google is a private entity and is entitled to their political opinions. The inability of the American electorate to think critically isn’t their fault. Google is just exploiting a weakness everyone knows exists (everyone except the low information voters).

I believe this is the movie, right?

For some reason my link is moving up to where I had moved the video up to to see if it might be the same thing.

This is several months later, but I’m listening to him on the radio right now talking about this. Scary.
