From the Washington Times: A study has found that Google is hiding former President Donald Trump’s campaign website under stories written by liberal news outlets while searches of Vice President Kamala Harris display flattering results and her campaign website more prominently.

The Media Research Center, a conservative watchdog group, analyzed searches for both candidates on Sept. 6 and found “Donald Trump presidential race 2024” produced negative news from liberal media outlets at the top of the search results. Mr. Trump’s campaign website appeared sixth in results, underneath stories from The New York Times, Politico and The Washington Post.

Ms. Harris’ campaign website was much easier to find, the MRC study discovered. It showed up much higher in the Google search, and nearly all the news stories above it were favorable and written by left-leaning outlets.

Dan Schneider, vice president of the Media Research Center’s Free Speech America program, said the search engine previously made it even more difficult to find Mr. Trump’s campaign website but has shifted tactics and is now placing it below liberal news reports about the former president, which tend to be negative.


“The big difference now is that Google puts a series of newspaper articles above search results, and for Donald Trump, all those newspaper articles, or media articles, are from left-wing outlets, and all those stories are harsh about Donald Trump. All the articles that Google produces above Kamala Harris’ website are puff pieces about her,” Schneider explained.

Trump reacted to the news in a fiery Truth Social post Friday afternoon. He wrote:

It has been determined that Google has illegally used a system of only revealing and displaying bad stories about Donald J. Trump, some made up for this purpose while, at the same time, only revealing good stories about Comrade Kamala Harris.

This is an ILLEGAL ACTIVITY, and hopefully the Justice Department will criminally prosecute them for this blatant Interference of Elections. If not, and subject to the Laws of our Country, I will request their prosecution, at the maximum levels, when I win the Election, and become President of the United States!

An undercover video released by James O’Keefe earlier this month features a Google executive who admits that Google has been actively coordinating with the Kamala Harris campaign, manipulating its search engine advertisements to favor her in the 2024 election.
