>the way those results are ordered isn’t exactly organic. Alexa ranks the NYT at 120 globally; WaPo at 190. Now, what about the illustrious townhall.com, which had not one but two hits on page one? It’s ranked at 9,109. In other words, those first four pages (four full pages of synchronized bullshit) are evidence of a massive and centrally managed strategic misinformation campaign being waged on your brain.
Granted.
>These dozens of sites are all peddling the same lie...
Uh, the headlines provided range from "No evidence of trump-russia collusion" (page 1) all the way to... "lack of evidence on trump-russia collusion" (page 4).
>If you read closely (which they’re betting you won’t) they all include the proper, honest caveats: no evidence YET; no one says they’ve SEEN evidence; etc.
The jump from that, to "No evidence" in the headline, is the most humdrum of spin used in every media article written every day, it's the background noise of journalism.
You're onto something big, don't mire your articles in blue tribe whining.
