What’s Going On At Google News?
OK, so by now it’s pretty well established that I nit-pick things, have an acute sense of observation, and a big enough mouth to broadcast my astonishment at the funny things I notice around me. I’m learning how to be more positive and keep my mouth shut more… but I just couldn’t pass this one up.
Was looking at Google News to see what’s going on up in Massachusetts for the special election, and I noticed that a section on Israel and the Palestinian Authority had a weird side photo:
I'm pretty sure they didn't want that picture of the tennis player in there!
OK, curious, but not really interesting… until I saw the article section on the election. Now, that’s a funny photo!
A little sexist, no?
So, what’s the deal? Now, I’m wondering how Google comes up with the photos that show up, and if someone’s having a good time at their expense.
