ThingolFox News (or any center-right) outlet does not appear on the first page when googling “election results” or “election updates”
At least for me. But CNN and the NYT do, along with CNBC and others. We all know this is not by accident, but I wonder if it is just some of us, or all of us.
Yes, I know there are better search engines than google in terms of this, I am mainly just ranting, but most of the world uses Google, so this is just another example of algorithmic control being exerted by big tech.
I do have to admit, I do enjoy watching some coverage of elections on MSM sites though, as the crying when the dems lose is highly entertaining.

RichardC https://www.foxnews.com/elections/ "election results"
was the fourth link down from top when using DuckDuckGo search engine from within Brave browser,
but you're right, no
conservative news sites from Google.

MikeNHGoogle is run by left coast socialists. They only let you see approved news sources. Stop using them.

egregoreFox appears on Bing, but about three-quarters of the way down the page. The top one is Politico.com.

trapper189Not shocked by this. On the other hand, I don't have any trouble finding election coverage or Fox News.

Easier in theory than practice. Internet searches, no problem, but I'm not going to stop using YouTube or Android smart phones. Both of those have proven valuable to my work.

jhe888In Google, I get mostly local news services with that search. And the Texas Secretary of State.
