Google: No Bias from Newsbot
"Google News trumpets its ability to stay abreast of current events ‘solely by computer algorithms without human intervention.’ But the robot approach has come under fire. Rather than representing news, the bots often reflect a bias that exists on the Net.
"Search for, say, John Kerry, and you’ll get fringe sites like s5000.com. We asked Krishna Bharat, chief scientist for Google News, if he should put a few pulses on the payroll for quality control."
