The Wall Street Journal’s John D.

Google said none of the ideas discussed were implemented. … The disclosure is certain to fuel complaints by many Republicans that [Google] stifles conservative viewpoints online and promotes a liberal worldview.”

Oh noes, Google putting forward a liberal worldview? Aren't they entitled to have a fucking religion insofar as Repulicunts and HobbyLobby is concerned? But no, it's only a problem when a big corporations expresses an opinion that doesn't tow the line with their bullshit...
What's that old saw again? Reality has a well known liberal bias.
