| Re: Meh I'm surprised. I've seen news.yahoo.com and finance.yahoo.com - which is assembled by editors, not a bot - regularly front page stories of yahoo woe. NY Times publishes its own financial results (good or bad). WSJ reports on the murdoch buyout. I don't think a legitimate news outlet can get away with a blind spot. | |

I find it troubling that google news which is seen by many as an impartial news aggregator is not showing any news that shows google in a poor light. Which leads to questions about what other stories they are blocking from their news pages. -- My Blog on blogspot.com | |

| news does what news wants, not what news is Go to www.cnn.com and search for FairTax or Fair Tax, ZERO articles. Even with big campaigns in South Carolina and Iowa they will choose not to cover them.
As far as Google's concerned it's somewhat interesting but we'll see. Google is a big company and like most big companies somethings get dropped and it's highly possible that since they're a public company they may not redundantly post into news what they already post to "investor relations".
Edit: Figured I'd make it easy for people to see my CNN example: »search.cnn.com/search?query=Fair···tl=false -- »www.fairtax.org | |

| Re: news does what news wants, not what news is The're planning rallies next door to presedential debates. The one in SC had at least 8000 people and wasn't covered by CNN yet it was covered by local (obviously), AP and other networks. I suspect the one in Iowa will be even bigger but I've not been following it that closely.
