Google is EVIL.

I loved Google's explanation:

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.

Took me many tries searching Google with “crooked” Hillary key words to find this:

Crooked Hillary: Major Updates on Email and Clinton Foundation Scandals
http://townhall.com/tipsheet/guybenson/2016/06/10/crooked-hillary-new-updates-on-email-and-clinton-foundation-scandals-n2176586

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.

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.

absolutely true and easy to verify:

searches for: hillary clinton indictment

google yields 1 million hits

https://www.google.com/search?q=hillary+clinton+indictment&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8

bing yields 18.4 million hits

https://www.bing.com/search?q=hillary+clinton+indictment&pc=MOZI&form=MOZSBR

yahoo yield 4.2 million hits

https://search.yahoo.com/yhs/search?p=hillary+clinton+indictment&ei=UTF-8&hspart=mozilla&hsimp=yhs-001

searches for: trump racist

google: 81 million hits.

https://www.google.com/search?q=trump+racist&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8

bing: 6 million hits

https://www.bing.com/search?q=trump+racist&pc=MOZI&form=MOZSBR

yahoo: 23.5 million hits

https://search.yahoo.com/yhs/search?p=trump+racist&ei=UTF-8&hspart=mozilla&hsimp=yhs-001

Try it yourself!

Google is CLEARLY manipulating searches to help Hillary. Now THIS is what Congress should REALLY be investigating!

[BTW, so is yahoo. Yesterday, yahoo agreed within 10% of bing; today yahoo has mysterioyusly moved closer to google.]
