All Roads Lead to CNN - Google

[BeautifulStranger]

Just did several different several different searches, using Google.com, on the Presidential debates tonight and noticed CNN on most searches came up first, with Fox News coming up, if at all, between 2 to 4 pages later. When specifically searching for ”Fox” and “Presidential debates”, Fox was third on the first page, with a single direct reference. When I entered “CNN” and “Presidential debates”, the first page was almost exclusively CNN.

Seems like someone is trying to influence the election to me.

Well, a fox is an animal, and a CNN is not. Maybe the search engine code was trying to find the best match for both terms, and was diluted with the "Fox" bit. Next time, maybe put "fox news" in quotes? I think that tells the search engine to look for those words combined, not separately.

I capitalized “Fox”.

This despite FOX News having the highest ratings of ALL television last quarter.

I turned to FOX for a couple of minutes after the debate to see what the Dark Side was saying. Hannity called Trump a gladiator who was fighting for America. If Trump fucked a goat on national television Hannity would declare it to be a triumph in inter-species diplomacy and relations.

Apparently most Americans agree, according to the ratings.
