It is very difficult to hide this type of bias in the statistics - it shows up in the number of pages reported on a topic. If an institution or agency has a bias, intentional or unintentional, (censorship is, of course, a type of bias), this bias is transmitted to its statistics unless a very carefully executed disinformation campaign is waged. On average, most organizations, while full of smart people, don't act that intelligently while in "hive intelligence" mode.

I'd like to see your comments on this post...
