How leftwing internet news sites Google and Apple News tried to protect Platner from scandal | Eastern NC Now

Just after ABC, NBC, and CNN showed their blatant partisan political bias in refusing to carry President Trump's speech to the nation, something they never refused for a Democrat president, another example has come out that shows that internet new is also badly biased. This time it involves Google News and Apple News campaign to try to protect Democrat Socialist US Senate candidate Graham Platner from a long list of scandals.

Google News and Apple News are news aggregators which republish articles from other outlets on their internet sites.  A new study from the Media Research Center shows that during Platner's candidacy, Google News and Apple News spiked all the articles on the long list of scandals that developed on Platner, so that those who used their sites for news never knew about any of them.

Then, when the first poll showing Platner losing to his GOP opponent dropped, Google News and Apple News suddenly reversed course and opened the floodgates on Platner, helping the Democrat push to replace him on the ballot.  From start of finish, the handling of the Maine senate race was done in a totally partisan manner by Google News and Apple News.  First they protected Platner from his own record, and when that would no longer work, they helped the Democrat Party push him out so he could be replaced.

The highly partisan political game playing by our media, whether it is ANC, NBC, and CNN in TV or Google News and Apple News on the internet is a threat to our democracy.
