EXCLUSIVE: GOOGLE EMPLOYEES DEBATED BURYING CONSERVATIVE MEDIA IN SEARCH
Daily Caller ^ | 12/1/18

Posted on 12/01/2018 11:45:48 AM PST by Liberty7732

Google employees debated whether to bury conservative media outlets in the company’s search function as a response to President Donald Trump’s election in 2016, internal Google communications obtained by The Daily Caller News Foundation reveal.

The Daily Caller and Breitbart were specifically singled out as outlets to potentially bury, the communications reveal.

Trump’s election in 2016 shocked many Google employees, who had been counting on Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton to win.

Communications obtained by TheDCNF show that internal Google discussions went beyond expressing remorse over Clinton’s loss to actually discussing ways Google could prevent Trump from winning again.

Gooebbelggle or any variation where you can fit Goebbels name in it because the censorship they’re committing would of made him proud.

I admit to not knowing what the term ‘docksing(sp)’ means, but I am curious what all those weasels at google would do, if, as an academic exercise in thought only, all the conservatives in the nation chipped ONE DOLLAR AND NO MORE, to hire a private investigator to obtain just ONE snapshot of each of the employees, as they were, oh say, at the hair place, the gas station, the supermarket, a cinema, a mall, or wherever they just might happen to be found, and then publish all the pictures at once?
Mind you, I did not mention any activity which would breach their “privacy”.

“If you want to use the internet, you don’t have a choice.”

I’ve heard that even DuckDuckGo is Google based. IIRC, it does a little bit to help privacy, but when it comes to query results, it is Google. The links that come first in DuckDuckGo would be the same links as with Google; they draw from Google. So if privacy is your only concern, DDG could work. But if you want to get conservative links in the first pages, DDG won’t help you. You’re screwed. I miss Alta Vista.

How do you think people who post the articles here find them? Google News is a major way.

Google News? Nevah hoid of it.

I post articles here from time to time. I've never once used Google to locate any story. There are multitudes of other sources available.

They have done it.

Further, they keep posting liberal crap in their news feed I would prefer to ignore - like the great “Read my lips Bush” demise.

Public Schools teach their indoctorants to use Google. So think about that one.

According to what source? Who says they do?

Facts and reality can be diluted by made-up bullshit.

So think about that one.

Perhaps you should.

Start typing “Infowars”, slowly, letter by letter, into Google and see how many letters it takes before Infowars is suggested.

Then try the same with Bing, DuckDuckgo, and Yahoo.

You’ll have your answer as to whether Google is ‘adjusting’ search results if you do that.

The search function on FR is so outdated and inefficient it’s almost unusable.

So they don’t really do it, they just talked about it? Yeah, who believes that? Facebook is fair-minded about conservatives and respects everybody, too—in the land of NOT.

Just Google “Neil Degrasse Tyson” and look at the parade of glowing coverage of this garbage scammer leftist idiot. There’s plenty of negative articles if you use other search engines.
