Headline: “Hundreds Of Fake News Sites Pulled From Google Search”
“Google has blocked hundreds of fake news services and websites from its search results on the grounds that they were serving up Chinese propaganda.
The firm’s Threat Analysis Group said that an umbrella group of four companies, dubbed Glassbridge, has been creating and operating hundreds of domains that pose as independent news websites from dozens of countries.
In fact, though, the content involves narratives aligned to the political interests of the People’s Republic of China — and the company has now blocked more than a thousand Glassbridge-operated websites from appearing in Google News features and Google Discover.”
