Google News Includes Terrorist Organization In Al-Manar Little Green Footballs I thought I was finished being surprised by the news sources officially chosen by Google News to include in their index. Then I learned that Google News is giving their stamp of legitimacy to none other than the propaganda wing of the terrorist group Hizballah, Al-Manar—recently named by the US Treasury Department as a Specially Designated Global Terrorist organization: << al-manar source: al_manar - Google News. >> news.google.com source%3Aal_manar&btnG=Search News (Hat tip: Atlas Shrugs.) Disgusting. Shame on Google. Here’s a piece by Clifford May on Al-Manar: Turning off terrorist television. townhall.com UPDATE at 4/4/06 10:32:22 am: Whenever I post about Google News, a misunderstanding always comes up; please note that Google Search uses automatic methods to crawl around the web and add sites to their index, but Google News sources are chosen and approved by human beings at Google. Google deliberately added Al-Manar to their index after reviewing it. littlegreenfootballs.com news.google.com source%3Aal_manar&btnG=Search News townhall.com
