Google Sandboxing anti-Obama Blogs?
Google ‘censoring’ anti-Obama bloggers?
Writer claims Internet giant banning stories that expose president-elect
Pamela Geller of Atlas Shrugs claims the search engine giant has banned her groundbreaking articles about Obama – a technique many people refer to as “sandboxing.”
“There was no warning, no notice, nothing,” Geller told WND. “They have basically sandboxed me.”
“Sandboxing” happens when Google strips a website’s rankings from its search engine results. According to some theories, this happens to new websites when Google puts them into a holding area known as a “sandbox” until the site gains credibility.
However, Atlas Shrugs is not new, and Gellar believes her stories have been intentionally suppressed by the Internet giant – especially ones about President-elect Obama. 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
On July 4, Gellar featured a story about a board-certified forensic expert who declared Obama’s online birth certificate a “forgery” and an “obvious fake.” She attributes most of her problems with Google to that report.
“I think that it’s the birth certificate story,” Geller said. “All of the sudden, my numbers were down by 10,000.”
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.
I have never liked Google, I have thought them to be an ultra-liberal corporation. I refuse to use them for anything and I believe this story has the ring of truth!
