AllSides — a media solutions company that purports to “expose people to information and ideas from all sides of the political spectrum so they can better understand the world” —released a report Feb. 28 illustrating how Google News “displayed articles from left-wing media sources far more often than sources from the right.”

Specifically, AllSides said that its analysis revealed that a whopping “61% of media outlets presented on Google News’ homepage over a 5-day period were from sources AllSides rates as on the left, with just 3% from outlets on the right.”

“The jig is up,” MRC Free Speech America Vice President Dan Schneider said in a statement. “It’s no accident when Google News promotes left-leaning outlets twenty times more than right-leaning outlets. Google cannot pretend to be unbiased any longer. Our own research has shown it. AllSides is corroborating it.”

My own experience confirms that Google News is not a good source for conservative content.  You are better off using their search feature.

In contrast, Mr. Price and company have drawn up their own plan, the "Economic Recovery and Middle...

Obamagate, The Movie

WND: The Irish-born filmmaking couple Phelim McAleer and Ann McElhinny are known for their film  "Gosnell,"  which exposed the seamy underside of the abortion industry by turning transcripts and evidence from the trial of the Philadelphia abortionist Kermit Gosnell into a cinematic drama. Now, in yet another effort to counter a conventional narrative with first-hand evidence, they're about to release  "Obamagate: The Movie,"  showing how the Obama administration tried to take down Donald Trump.They turned gripping testimony from the 2014 Michael Brown case into a play, called  "Ferguson."   And lately they did the same with the infamous texts of FBI agent Peter Strzok and bureau lawyer Lisa Page in  "FBI Lovebirds: Undercovers,"  starring Dean Cain and Kristy Swanson. "We would be unemployed if the media did its job," McAleer told WND in an interview. "They're not reporting spin anymore," he said of the establ...
