Changes such as... what? Falsifying the bias reporting so they don’t get caught again?

~~~

Exactly. Changes like figuring out how they measured the bias and adding fixes to mask obfuscate the ability to sample and measure it

The fact that they had to change things to allow pro-life ads proves they WERE discriminating against conservatives. Ditto the refusal to list Breitbart as a legitimate news source, leading to its content being downgraded or “fact checked”.

Big surprise, after a 3 year investigation we also found out the Obama IRS was discriminating against conservatives.

It isn’t a secret. Social media and the press are political activists.

Since they have nothing to hide, a public ban list would be fair.

I am well aware of how this works.
We had a mandated training at Intel which required everyone to go to express their opinions of Outsourcing.
We were told our opinions expressed in the meeting would never be repeated.

Three Indians reported me to my manager.
The program was dropped 3 months later but it showed up on my review.

High Tech lies to get done what they want done.

People ask where SJWs plan on working. Many are intentionally seeking employment in HR. They ASK your political opinions and won’t hire you if you don’t espouse far left values ... all in the name of “culture fit”.
