Prior to Trump upsetting Hillary, I used Google News. At the time, I had the option of adding my own preferred sites to counter their leftist propaganda. It's nice to know both.

After Trump beat Hillary, they took the options away and searches for my conservative sites produced a bunch of really crappy articles and blogs critical of something on conservative sites just as is reported below.

It was some very ham-handed bias.

When a Google user tried to find Breitbart.com for example, the site delivered stories about Breitbart, but not a link to the Breitbart homepage.


Conversely, when searching for the racist New York Times, Google returned a whole suite of options for the user to find the Times homepage, and also browse their sections, and search for keywords.

Technically they did it to silence dissenting opinion is what they meant.

Google is a functional monopoly and should be dismantled under anti-trust laws.

Like the "glitch" when Churchill's photo was removed. LINK

They're not even trying to hide their agendas anymore.
