Amazon.com has a better summary of the book. Even though it was written by a leftist, the filtering done for profit is shaping what you believe is true.

It’s written by someone who wants to do that kind of shaping himself. It may be easy to play “shoot the messenger”, but it’s hard to take it from a proverbial “boy who cried ‘Wolf’” . . . because it will still look like agenda-mongering on his own part.

There is nothing conservative to be found.

There is no historical data on any polictical subject.

The author would have you believe the “Internet” is hiding stuff from you. It’s like listening to only a couple friends for your truth dose when you only pull information from CNN and Google. There are many search engines available and multiple news sources to weigh and balance the information one obtains from the Internet. Sad thing is that many people only search via Google and their filters, which can also be altered by the user to some extent. And some people only listen to a couple of friends, and become twisted liberal fools in the process.

So now it's Google's fault rather than my fault for not listening to NPR and watching MSNBC like all the cool kids do.

Not to worry. Just by following links you can usually get to where the truth is.

Like how when you go to Yahoo! and type in “Rush Limbaugh” it will bring up five hit pieces from liberal blogs and place them higher in the results than the actual RushLimbaugh.com webpage?

To me, it sounds like a ripe business opportunity.

Bubble-less searching, that it.

Google image Michelle Obama and Sarah Palin - you have to go pretty far down the Obama page to find parodies. Palin parodies start on page one.
