President Trump on Tuesday blasted Big Tech's censorship of right-wingers and warned them they "better be careful." "I think Google is really taking advantage of a lot of people," Trump said from the Oval Office. "[Google, Facebook and Twitter had] better be careful because you can't do that to people." "We have literally thousands and thousands of complaints coming in," he said. "They are really treading on very, very troubled territory and they have to be careful. It is not fair to large portions of the population." Earlier in the day Trump tweeted: "Google search results for “Trump News” shows only the viewing/reporting of Fake News Media. In other words, they have it RIGGED, for me & others, so that almost all stories & news is BAD. Fake CNN is prominent. Republican/Conservative & Fair Media is shut out. Illegal? 96% of results on “Trump News” are from National Left-Wing Media, very dangerous. Google & others are suppressing voices of Conservatives and hiding information and news that is good. They are controlling what we can & cannot see. This is a very serious situation-will be addressed!"
Trump was referencing this article from PJ Media which noted how a search for "Trump" on Google News brought up 96% left-leaning news sites, with the only (mildly) right-wing site being the War Street Journal.
Currently if you search "Trump" on Google the number one result is this fake news article from CNN saying their results are not "rigged." CNN is quite possibly the number one benefactor of Google's new rigged search algorithms, both on Google and YouTube. YouTube even publicly announced recently they're not only going to put "trusted" sources at the top of all search results (which creates comical situations like this) but also give $25 million to fund "authoritative news sources." CNN was also potentially the biggest benefactor of Facebook's recent algorithm change which hammered conservative sites and propped up leftist propaganda organs. "CNN's traffic increased 43.78 percent," Western Journal reported in March. (CNN dwarfs ABC News's traffic overall, so the change is far more significant despite being slightly lower percentage-wise). CNN, of course, declined to inform their readers of how they're profiting massively off these changes. Follow InformationLiberation on Twitter, Facebook, Gab and Minds. |
