Good News Propaganda ? well isn’t that a daisy the dems create a tool for bolstering false hope among the masses no doubt stories will be skewed to the leftist side of the street ! center road is not googles forte !

"....So the Snowflakes will not be frightened by real news. How precious. "

-----------------

My first thought as well!

We all know that challenging discussion or new ideas scare the poor little darlings so this will be more pablum for the tender of heart libtards.

"Tell me some good news?"

There are worthwhile alternatives to Google and Facebook. Use them.

“Good” news?

Google probably means to offer “good,” anti-Trump fake news as opposed to combating fake news of any kind.

The Happy News website was short-lived. It’s still up, though. I thought it was a great idea. Can’t imagine why it didn’t survive past 2013.

Me: Hey Google, tell me something good!

Google: I deleted your entire browsing history from our servers.

Who decides what news is “Good news”?

Google, along with Facebook, is evil and Satan driven. I make a conscious effort to stay as far away from Google as I can.

I did this a few times yesterday and found everything I got came from “SJN” (https://www.solutionsjournalism.org/) and they are partnered with a local conservative news outlet. The stories seem harmless enough — mentally handicapped kids at a waterpark, new malaria treatments, decrease in local homelessness, etc — but to paraphrase an old professional wrestling adage: “if it’s on GoogleFacebookTwitter, it’s a work”.

I think that this good news Google page will probably have a section devoted to the stories from the Just Walk Away Campaign.

The stories will be focused on the happiness of the people involved in Walking Away.

I see that the putrid “The Hill” is still pumping out propaganda for their Google CIA masters. It must be fun to get paid for rewriting press releases from the fascist deep state. No brains required.

As a rule of thumb, I think hackers/virus writers should be hanged.

However, if someone were clever enough to come up with a site-specific bug that would completely - and I mean eternally - devour everything google forever, I’d buy ‘em a case of beer.
Second case if they’d whack fakebutt too.
