Google has been purposely modifying searches on Hillary Clinton to steer you away from certain topic areas, like her potential indictment. View the video.
scumbags so long!
Google is EVIL.
"Google Autocomplete does not favor any candidate or cause. Claims to the contrary simply misunderstand how Autocomplete works. Our Autocomplete algorithm will not show a predicted query that is offensive or disparaging when displayed in conjunction with a person’s name. More generally, our autocomplete predictions are produced based on a number of factors including the popularity of search terms."
In other words, don't believe your lying eyes.
Some IT guy commented and said it was probably because the full name Hillary Clinton was the one tested, and it didn’t count the times people searched only for the first name Hillary. But the same issue might arise when people search only Trump instead of the full name Donald Trump, right? Or is there some difference? FR IT guys?
I would say that they did. For those who do not want Hillary in the White House, we are going to have to battle all the forces and powers of Satan including the media, the Republican Party, and the Democrat Party.

Still call BS. When I search for “Hillary cri” the auto complete suggests “Hillary criminal email”
Anecdotal at best.
I agree. I just typed “Hillary mu” and it completed the search term “Hillary murders.”
Google has ‘Fixed’ the problem after they were caught Thursday.
News flash Google influences every search.
Took me many tries searching Google with “crooked” Hillary key words to find this:
Crooked Hillary: Major Updates on Email and Clinton Foundation Scandals

But for sure the auto-complete at Google Search box does NOT show any such search term, as Google always does for every other search for key words.
A Bing search however does return plenty of results unlike Google, that is supporting Hillary Clinton.

Like Hillary just another enemy of the state.
Maybe...maybe not. I first read this yesterday and when I did the search, I got the results suggested in the video. Today, I get the same as you. Perhaps they modified the search parameters in between?
The Google page display of my favorite websites NEVER shows Free Republic.
Google is puerile.
Here’s an interesting search result in Yahoo vs. Google:
I typed in “Elizabeth Warren fa” in Yahoo and the first suggested result was “Elizabeth Warren Fauxcahontas”.
When I typed in the same thing in Google I got 4 results, none of which related to Fauxcahontas.
Just anecdotal evidence but still suggestive of Google protecting certain people they favor.
Please see my post #17 relating to interesting disparity in search results for Elizabeth Warren.
If you watched the video through, remember the group used google Tremds to test both the autocomplete suggestion and the “crime” term - and the autocomplete suggestion barely registered. That would seem to invalidate google’s contention that the autocomplete was generated by the volume of previous searches.
Still doing it.
What is worse than this is burying news stories.
I’ve noticed it for awhile.
For example, when Apple stood up to the FBI it was hard to find examples of Google, Apple, and MS cooperating with the Chinese government.
