Google explains why racist Michelle Obama pic was top search item

i seen white people that look like monkeys, black people that look like gorrillas, white and black people that look like cats with me i had 2 buck teeth the kids use to call me chipmunk ,beaver rabbit, people will always talk shit. it just takes a thinking mind that isnt weak to outside souls to keep liveing to enhance the power of self. anyway they have correct and enrich thier own lifeforce, it just takes longer when they are focused on others besides themselves.

It's sad that there are people who are this cruel. Why can't they just leave other people alone.

That's not even humorous. It's down right mean.It needs to be ignored, not advertised that just fuels the fire....=(

1): I have, hey - the best site on the internet for the subject. And it's way bigger than all others. But can it be found on Google? No.
2): My friends send me attachments from their gmail account - does it get there? maybe a week later.
3): When I put a new domain up and sent it in to google, did they put it up at all? No. Not for over three weeks. Yahoo? Yahoo put it up immediately. 35 seconds later.
Ya see? that's how the internet is supposed to work

Google talks big, the PR is big, they seem to have plenty of money - but they are too big to do their job. They don't do the email good, they don't do the searches good. And they are as manipulative as Microsoft.

They show who paid them - so Google is a shopping mall, the end.
I go to yahoo search.

And tonight, a NASA engineer, whose associate who did the analysis of the algorithms says Yahoo is the better engine.

So get over thinking Google is good, because they aren't. Maybe they'll try to get back to fixing their foundation - but it's Yahoo for me.

"Dear Google, I was Appalled and OFFENDED by the images that came up in your search when I searched for 'Pink Glass Dildo' the other day. You should be ashamed..."

stop reproducing the picture. take it down.

ew... bad ohiti editing

So internet sabotage and stolen emails are @water-gate level now Who New?

A Google bomb (or "link bomb") is Internet slang for a certain kind of attempt to raise the ranking of a given page in results from a Google search, often with humorous or political intentions.[1] Before 2007, Google's search-rank algorithm could rank a page higher if enough other sites linked to that page using similar anchor text (linking text such as "miserable failure");[2] but Google changed the ranking by January 2007 to instead list pages about the repeated linking of that text.[2] Google bomb is used both as a verb and a noun. The phrase "Google bombing" was introduced to the New Oxford American Dictionary in May 2005.[3] Google bombing is closely related to spamdexing, the practice of deliberately modifying HTML pages to increase the chance of their website being placed close to the beginning of search engine results, or to influence the category to which the page is assigned in a misleading or dishonest manner.

The term Googlewashing was coined in 2003 to describe the use of media manipulation to change the perception of a term, or push out competition from search engine results pages (SERPs).

this is news because

Google search result rankings are determined by complex algorithms that take into account a number of factors. A powerful element in the calculations is how many other sites on the internet link to an image or web page from the search term text.

This means it is possible for mischievous web users to artificially inflate a search ranking in a process known as "Google bombing", although this usually requires the co-ordinated efforts of thousands of people.

PS I don't see no "message on the top of the results page distancing Google from the image"!!!! ”

I did a search for Michelle Obama and sure enough this image is the first one that pops up. I think that they should at least make sure it is not the first image that pops up every time, that seems slightly odd.

KSirys is right. Google damn well can know what they're putting on line. News organizations control their content and so can Google.

And this is news because?

Were people under the impression that the free internet was under the control and regulated by our Government? Like China?

Wait a minute, it may be really soon. I guess many might be under that impression..my bad.

I remember when you searched for stupid or idiot or something in google, George W. Bush was the first result. People kept clicking on bush after searching stupid bringing it to the top (since the search engine made it more "relevant"). Interesting that this happened to the 1st lady. . .

Google should be able to find out who did this. If they do a thorough job, they will know who did it and who pay for the ad to show. I know because I had to pay with my credit card to post an ad for my company and where I wanted it to show.

Google should take more responsibility and stop the "We assure you that the views expressed by such sites are not in any way endorsed by Google," BULLSHIT!!

dang i thought this was a post proving the first lady was a racist not a ignorant picture put out by Raum Emanuel

Hell if anything she looks better now. Michelle obama is NOT a good looking women. She always looks like she has a chaw of tobacco in her bottom lip. I bet its Skoal

It is not even good Photoshop work. Fail.

I think Google's policy makes sense in terms of defending freedom of expression and access to information. It is better that the world see how haters think so that we may properly arm ourselves against them.

Odd......

google has alot of offensive pictures in they're search results, it would take a long time for them to filter all of them out but i guess the first lady is searched just as much as one of the worlds oldest and popularized religions

people are idiots.

bush looks more like a chimp... and he does not need photo shop help to look like one... its natural.

and i agree with bailey that looks nothing like michelle obama

That looks nothing like Michelle Obama.

Google - is not what it's cracked up to be. The facade is a fake.
You are free to search in their paid-for fish bowl, your brain filled with adds from those that pay. It's far worse than TV because -YOU- are going for it.
