Republican leaders demand answers from Google after assassination attempt search term fiasco
KANSAS CITY, Mo. (KCTV) - Republican leaders have called for a Congressional investigation and hearing into the practices of Google after search terms relating to the assassination attempt on former President Donald Trump started to not pop up.
On Wednesday, July 31, U.S. Senator Roger Marshall (R-Kan.) announced that he had sent a letter to Google CEO Sunda Pichai to demand answers for the suppression of search terms related to the assassination attempt of former President Donald Trump on July 13.
In the letter, Sen. Marshall requested a full investigation and Congressional hearing into the “censorship of conservatives and blatant bias.”
🚨BREAKING: I am launching a full investigation into @Google’s censorship & bias that is constricting the free flow of information. Google, the largest Search Engine Operator in the world, has become a propaganda wing of the Left. No more hiding behind your algorithm- your time… pic.twitter.com/l40L4TVQS4
Additionally, Marshall’s letter outlines a repeated history of discrimination toward conservative viewpoints. The letter comes after Republican leaders took to X to sound the alarm on Google’s refusal to recommend any topics related to the assassination attempt. An investigation was also announced earlier this week.
