Google’s Knowledge Panel and Wikipedia
Recently a couple of Google search results included links to disquieting anti-conservative content in the search engine’s so-called Knowledge Panel. The content in these panels relies on Wikipedia for much of that information and may be the source for the anti-conservative bias. So how does Wikipedia get its content? If you Google Wikipedia, here’s what that Knowledge Panel says:
Wikipedia is a multilingual, web-based, free-content encyclopedia that is based on a model of openly editable content. It is the largest and most-popular general reference work on the Internet, and is named as one of the most popular websites.
So in short, one of the “most popular websites”, that’s a “model of openly editable content” is relied on by the quasi-monopoly Google to provide us with “knowledge.” Add in to the mix that Social Justice Warriors dominate social media companies and it’s no wonder conservative bias infiltrates Google searches.
The reason for the specific anti-conservative propaganda mentioned above was that Wikipedia was “vandalized.” When asked about the incident, Larry Page, Google founder said the vandal was “no doubt a well-intentioned SJW. Remember, Hillary’s email-server-hidden-in-a-bathroom was well-intentioned so there’s not much to see here either. Despite that, we’ve exhausted our technology to determine that the offending IP address links back to a seventh-grade typing class at Eric Holder Junior High. So just relax you over-sensitive bigoted, Nazi-loving Republicans.”
We should mention that we got that quote from Google’s Knowledge Panel.
