ABC News: Trump says without evidence that Google 'rigged' searches against him.
https://abcnews.go.com/Politics/tru...oritizes-fake-news-searches/story?id=57444232

President Donald Trump attacked Google in Tuesday morning tweets that accused the company of prioritizing "fake news" in its search results.

The results are “rigged” against him and other conservatives, he wrote on Twitter.

Great, the President of the United States has CPC. Hey Mr. President, if you can't take it, you could always resign.
 
He's probably right.. Google is evil, and if you don't know it, you should.

Tim-
 
Well it's certainly true that they prioritize outlets like WashPo and CNN. Fortunately you can tailor results to omit a lot of the crap (like I did with the latter).

So what do you think he meant by "it will be addressed." Citizens United affirmed that corporations have the same tights as citizens.
 
Just tried "bill clinton is a rapist" and got no results. Checks out.
 
Well, maybe. Google prioritizes search results based on the target audience and who pays them. Maybe conservative outlets are less likely to pay Google for this service.

An evil search engine?

Does Google sacrifice a kitten every time some one searches for porn?

Does it use slave labour to power its server farms. Making them run on tread mills to provide energy?

Does Google dump toxic chemicals in drinking water to poison people?

Just what can make a search engine evil?

Swampy does not use the computer. Conservative news routinely gets things wrong. You can change google to suit your needs. He got this "information" from lou dobbs and diamond & s***

There's always four pieces of wrong information in a long Swampy tweet. Always. Without fail.


His son is worse.
 
Just typical Trump rhetoric. Appeals to his base, makes the rest of us question his sanity, and will result in absolutely nothing anyway.

Oh great... trump throws more lying red meat for his nutjob followers to crank out more conspiracies. Gotta keep the conspiracy theories floating as they are constantly getting undermined by actual facts.

No, but it adjusts its search algorithms to rank sites it approves of higher than other sites, which leaves the searcher who doesn't know how to adjust the results looking only at certain stories.

Not evil.

Just manipulative.

Even basic research will tell you that this is wrong and that the "experts," that Fox News had on their show were wrong too. People are unwilling to look.

Trump could fart on live TV and Fox would have "experts" on there to tell everyone how it was intentional AND not a fart at the same time.

He has too much pent up energy to fart.

I don't know why he even bothers anymore. The responses are so automatic.

Pro-Trump Crowd: Whatever he hates, we hate, whatever he likes, we like, everything else is #FakeNews

Anti-Trump Crowd: Whatever he hates, we love, whatever he likes, we hate, everything else is #FakeNews

Could it be that Trump is starting to just get boring?

Google can do whatever it likes, it's a private corporation, and owes Trump nothing. Furthermore, they could pick up their server farms, plant them just about anywhere in the world, and continue along without missing a beat. We could use those jobs up here, if Trump feels Google is too crooked or biased... ;)

Question for Trump supporters...given the number of jobs Google provides in America, why does Trump want to hurt their business over something as insignificant (to the taxpayer) as his ego?

Trump didn't need to tell anyone that Google results lean Left. Duh.
More and more people use alternative search engines for that very reason.
