SHOCKING NEWS FROM USA TODAY: Google News results favor left-leaning media, report finds.

Google News and Google News search engine results appear to show a “strong preference” for media organizations that are on the left of the political spectrum, a new report finds.

The report from the media technology group AllSides, out Tuesday, analyzed Google News’ homepage and search engine results from the news page over a two-week period and determined that news outlets with a “left” bias were more often prominently displayed.

But the study found no evidence Google had intentionally altered search results for the purpose of “suppressing voices of conservatives,” as President Donald Trump has previously stated.

Trump has previously claimed that Google and other search engines are “rigged” against him.

“Google search results for ‘Trump News’ shows only the viewing/reporting of Fake News Media,” Trump tweeted Aug. 28. The administration has said the president was considering regulations against the tech giant.
