Missouri's AG Investigates Google for Alleged Censorship
Missouri's Attorney General Andrew Bailey announced an investigation into Google over allegations of censoring conservative speech. Despite Google dismissing these claims as false, this move highlights longstanding Republican concerns about anti-conservative bias on tech platforms. No evidence has been presented to support these allegations so far.
In a bold move, Missouri's Attorney General Andrew Bailey declared an investigation into Google, accusing the tech giant of censoring conservative viewpoints. These allegations come amidst a heated political atmosphere as the nation approaches the November elections.
For years, Republicans have accused tech companies of harboring anti-conservative biases, although firms like Google insist their platforms do not discriminate politically. In a recent statement, former President Donald Trump, vying for the upcoming election, hinted at prosecuting Google if elected once again.
A Google spokesperson categorically denied Bailey's claims, emphasizing their mission to provide broad access to information regardless of politics. As the investigation unfolds, many await substantive evidence supporting the accusations.
