Recently released AllSides data confirms MRC study results. Google Search manipulation of news outlets is real, and it overwhelmingly favors the left.
Media bias ratings firm AllSides assessed Google’s right-leaning and left-leaning bias in search results for news related to the 2024 election, particularly news concerning presidential candidates Vice President Kamala Harris (D) and President-elect Donald Trump (R), and other important election issues like the economy, immigration, crime, abortion, so-called climate change and gun control. Over 65 percent of the news Google displayed in its search results on these topics was left-leaning, emphasizing once again the bias MRC has repeatedly exposed. 
In fact, out of the top 10 outlets featured by Google in its search results on select topics, Fox News was the only right-leaning outlet featured out of more than 500 media articles analyzed, per AllSides.
In a Google search for “election news,” AllSides found that Google displayed 16 times more news from outlets it rates as “lean-left” than news it rates as “right.” Meanwhile, 68 percent of results for “Trump News” came from outlets AllSides rates as “Lean Left,” and 73 percent of Google results for “Harris News” likewise came from left-leaning outlets. X owner Elon Musk reacted to the AllSides chart on Google’s bias on Election Day by touting his platform, “Send X.com links to your friends so that they know what’s really going on.”
MRC Free Speech America studies have also repeatedly shown Google consistently burying campaign websites and right-leaning news in search engine results. Indeed, on Oct. 1 and Oct. 8, approximately a month before Election Day, right-leaning sources were buried in Google search results for searches on Trump and Harris — on Oct. 8, the first right-leaning source was 23 pages in. Again three weeks, two weeks, and about a week ahead of the election, and on Election Day itself, MRC found that Google buried right-leaning media in searches for the terms “donald trump presidential race 2024” and “kamala harris presidential race 2024.” On October 30, just before early voting ended in multiple states, Google buried all but left-leaning legacy media in search results about Trump’s presidential race for President Joe Biden and Harris’s 2024 opponents, particularly Trump.
Likewise, in November 2023, just before the third GOP presidential primary debate, Google buried the campaign websites of Joe Biden’s Republican and Democrat presidential rivals.
Researcher Dr. Robert Epstein and his team at America’s Digital Shield also exposed Google for sending noticeably more voting reminders to liberals and moderates than the conservatives.
