Former President Donald Trump on Friday called for Google to be criminally prosecuted for what he called the company’s bias toward his election opponent Vice President Kamala Harris in online search results.
Trump in a social media post wrote that if the Department of Justice does not prosecute Google “for this blatant interference of Elections” he would request its prosecution “when I win the election and become President of the United States!”
The Republican seemed to be reacting to a new study by the right-leaning Media Research Center, which purportedly found that Google search engine results tended to show news articles that supposedly were positive to Harris ahead of Trump’s own campaign website when a user searched for “Donald Trump presidential race 2024.”
