Pam Gellar from the blog Atlas Shrugs has been censored by the popular internet search engine Google. Gellar’s blog contains reports on Obama’s allegedly fraudulent documents, alleged campaign finance fraud, and others critical of the president-elect. From World Net Daily:
She said her exclusive stories about Obama’s birth certificate that once received thousands of hits every day will not come up in Google word searches.
“I was in the top five search results before the story got legs,” she said. “These stories drove 12,000 to 15,000 people to my site every day.”
But now a November earnings report shows her Google clicks and revenue flat lining since Nov. 20. Daily page impressions dropped from an average of 20,000 and 45,000 to single digits – overnight. Also, her Google images hits are slowed to only 4,720 since that day, while Yahoo and other search engines list them in the hundreds of thousands.
The truth is in jeopardy when a internet search engine can decide what information the people will and won’t have access to.
Geller said she has contacted Google three times, and the company said it has filed “requests for consideration” to put her stories back on Google’s search pages.
But this may explain everything:
She believes the censorship could have something to do with Google CEO Eric Schmidt’s relationship with the president-elect. According to recent reports, Schmidt will soon be holding a position in the Obama administration.
We must stand united against this assault on free speech. If it can happen to Atlas Shrugs, it can happen to anyone. Don’t let Google destroy the truth.
