Play the same game.

People should attach this guy’s name to DailyKos, Liberal, etc

This isn’t hard, it’s just that conservatives don’t fight nasty like the left does.

This is retarded
People should either learn how these applications work or don’t use them. Certainly do not try to start stupid boycotts over something you don’t have a clue about. wow

To be mad at Google for showing this is like being mad at a mirror for showing a guy behind you making funny faces at you behind your back.

The Google algorithms pick up what people are searching for so that they don’t type more than they have to. There are a lot of libs out there hoping this nutball is part of the tea party, and searching accordingly. If enough of us searched for “Jared Lee Loughner Communist” that’s what Google would show up there.

I’m all for holding companies accountable, but this is just silly.

What do we do?

Boycott Google.

Google defaults to a term linking the shooter to the Tea Party.

It’s only upsetting to Conservatives.

> I haven’t used Google for a few years. Ever since I heard they were cooperating with the Chinese government to turn over names of citizens who were criticizing the Chi-com government.

Well, jokes on you because all the other search engines (MS/Bing, Yahoo, etc.) have been in bed with the Chicoms from Day 1. At least Google made an attempt to fight against China.

So tell me what you use to search? I guarantee they are kanoodling with the commies.

Through that search, I ran across an amazingly even handed ‘just the facts, ma’am’ story on...sit down for this one...The Washington Post.

Maybe.

But as they did for Catholic issues, they can change this.

Why would you use a Web search instead of a News search?

There may be reasons to criticize Google, but maybe your biggest problem is with the user.

I haven't used Google for a few years. Ever since I heard they were cooperating with the Chinese government to turn over names of citizens who were criticizing the Chi-com government. Screw Google.

I remember that their official reaction was something along the lines of:

"Oops, our complany motto is "Do no evil", but we just did something pretty damned evil. Hey, what's for dinner?"

Google changed the algos on several Catholic issues.

Google controls the algos they run.

Google is just showing you what other people have been searching for - it's to help you avoid typing in more words if you intend to enter a common search term.

The only way to avoid this is if Google used political criteria to filter their auto-completion suggestions. No one should want that - believe me, it would bite conservatives in the butt early and often.
