Google Denies Trump’s Allegation That it Did Not Promote His State of The Union Address
Aug. 30, 2018Fresh fromthreatening Googlewith possible regulatory action for showing alleged liberal bias in its search results,Donald Trumpon Wednesday accused the tech giant of ignoring his State of the Union addresses by failing to feature it on its homepage.
To illustrate his point, the US President posted a video of unknown origin on Twitter, accusing the company of promoting former president Obama’s State of the Union addresses on its homepage, while ignoring his. The video claims,“For years, Google promoted president Obama’s State of the Union on its homepage. When President Trump took office, Google stopped”.
Multiple Redditors have also since posted screenshots claiming to expose Trump’s apparent lie, but given that such images can be easily manipulated, it will be difficult to vouch for the veracity of any of those screenshots.
