UN Google Search results overwhelmingly favor mainstream news, study shows - The CNN Search Engine

Here's the article.
According to data compiled by Northwestern University, Google search results overwhelmingly favor CNN compared to other news sources, followed by the New York Times and the Washington Post.

Of the top 20 news sources promoted by Google in its “top stories”, the top results on its News Search feature, just one was somewhat right-wing, Fox News. But Fox accounted for just three percent of the stories that appeared in “top stories,” compared to 10.9 percent for CNN, 6.5 percent for the New York Times, and 5.6 percent for the Washington Post.

Other mainstream or left-wing media sources which represented the top 20 sources include ABC, CBS, NPR, The Huffington Post, The Guardian, BBC, The Verge, Al Jazeera, Politico, and the LA Times.

86 percent of all results in Google’s “top stories” came from the top 20. Of those, all but the three percent of Fox results came from left-wing or establishment news sources.

Even mainstream media sources with a reputation for a right-of-center editorial line, like the Wall Street Journal and the New York Post do not appear in the top 20.

Recent stories have highlighted the left-wing bias of Google’s search results. Leaks from the company reveal that it deliberately blacklisted mainstream conservative sources like Conservative Tribune from its news search results. It also adjusted its search results on YouTube for politically charged search terms like “abortion” to promote mainstream media sources.

Democrats have labeled the idea of anti-conservative bias by tech giants a“conspiracy theory” — but the evidence that Google does indeed discriminate against conservative viewpoints is becoming overwhelming.

Fuck Google. That's all you really have to say at this point. Their offices are filled with snakes, and I'll be damned to find anyone who actually likes them as a company.

This reminds me of their initial reaction to Trump being elected, also provided by Breitbart.

I'd wonder about calling many of these things corporations anymore, the amount of shady government department involvement and monopoly like stranglehold puts them more at the level of private marketing and propaganda firms than a corporation that is competing with other corporations for customers and market share in the same industry.
 
I'm sure this video will be promoted heavily by Google's algorithm.
 
Just another reason why Google needs to be broken up. A shit tier monopoly that puts trannies under women.
 
I've noticed very recently that any time I watch a YouTube news item on Roku, it will only take 2 or 3 autoplays to dump me into a CNN/MSNBC cesspit. If I watch an independent news thing, the next thing will be Fox, followed by CNNetc. Guess they figured out that Roku users can't rate or comment on videos, so they just bump the view counters with no potential negatives.
