Trump accuses Google of 'suppressing' conservative voices

By STEPHANIE MURRAY

President Donald Trump accused Google of "suppressing the voices of conservatives" in a series of early morning tweets on Tuesday, saying the search giant is "rigged" to show users "bad" stories about him.

"Google search results for 'Trump News' shows only the viewing/reporting of Fake New Media. In other words, they have it RIGGED, for me & others, so that almost all stories & news is BAD. Fake CNN is prominent. Republican/Conservative & Fair Media is shut out," Trump wrote online.

The president appears to be referencing an article from PJ Media, a conservative blog founded in the early 2000s. The article, published over the weekend, features pie chart that says it breaks down "Google search results for 'Trump'" by party bias. Only a sliver of the pie chart, which encompasses the Wall Street Journal, is red. The rest of the chart, marked in blue, is made up of outlets PJ media accused of being "left-leaning," including The New York Times, CNN, The Washington Post and POLITICO.

Neither Trump nor the PJ media article offered any proof that Google was purposely promoting negative stories about the president at the expense of positive ones. Many news outlets specifically tailor their online content to match Google's search algorithms in an effort to appear at or near the top of search results.

"Illegal? 96% of results on 'Trump News' are from National Left-Wing Media, very dangerous. Google & others are suppressing voices of Conservatives and hiding information and news that is good. They are controlling what we can & cannot see. This is a very serious situation-will be addressed!" the president wrote on Twitter. He did not elaborate further what steps he might take against Google.

Trump's Tuesday morning's tweets marked a continuation of his long-running feud with media outlets that he claims offer him unfairly negative coverage. The president often bashes the press corps as "fake news" when it publishes stories he dislikes. Trump has shown a particular disdain for cable giant CNN.

Google is among the tech giants that have drawn the ire of the president and his conservative base. Last week, Trump blasted "social media giants" like Facebook and Twitter for "silencing millions of people." Google did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
