Google News is censoring Indymedia articles about the Million Marijuana
March. See for yourself:
http://news.google.com/news?q=%22Million+Marijuana+March%22
Google News has indexed more recent (and older) San Francisco Indymedia
articles on other topics. See for yourself. Here is a search shortcut
for indymedia articles set to sort by date.
http://news.google.com/news?hl=en&scoring=d&q=indymedia
The article "227 MMM cities worldwide and counting!!! Global March for
Cannabis Liberation. May 2, 3, 4" was put in the Global News section of
Indymedia, and it is currently still listed on the Indymedia Google page
that the Google spider indexes:
http://sf.indymedia.org/google.html
Another MMM article that was in the Global News section also didn't make
it into Google News: "May 3. Global March for Cannabis Liberation! 216+
cities listed! Worldwide since 1999. MMM"
This is obvious censorship on the part of Google News, in my opinion.
Go to the Drug War News feature page:
http://sf.indymedia.org/features/drugwar
An article between the 2 MMM articles in the Global News section is
listed in Google News. See for yourself:
http://news.google.com/news?hl=en&scoring=d&q=indymedia+marijuana
It is the article titled:
"TEEN GETS 26 YEARS FOR SELLING GRASS"
I thought Google News was indexing San Francisco Indymedia
articles accepted by Indymedia editors for the Global News section.
Please forward this to Google News.
