I have found incontrovertible proof that Microsoft strongly backs G.W. Bush and the Republican party while Google strongly backs the Democratic party.
Perform a search on msn for miserable failure. You will get MichaelMoore.com first and G.W. Bush is only 4th.
Now do the same search on google. You will get 2 pictures of President Bush at the top and then the bio page for G.W. Bush. And Michael Moore is 4th.
Clearly the search engine at Microsoft has been tweaked to favor Republican sources while the search engine at Google has been tweaked to favor Democrat sources. So the right now not only has Fox News, but also Microsoft search to deliver to them the information they agree with.
While the overwhelming popularity of google shows that most internet users prefer their searches leaning to the left. (Or as we liberals would say - mainstream.)
ps - While this was written tongue in cheek(liberal definition) it is true, for this case at least, that Microsoft gives more weight to conservative sites and Google to liberal ones.
