Google has placed ads from a host of Canadian companies on sites that have raised alarm bells with groups tracking pro-Russian coverage and misinformation

Canadian companies are inadvertently financing news websites criticized for publishing conspiracy theories and misinformation, through advertisements placed there without their knowledge, The Globe and Mail has found.

Among the ads The Globe found were from the Ontario-based Friends of Simon Wiesenthal Centre for Holocaust Studies on “fighting antisemitism every day,” placed next to a pictorial portraying Hitler as an LGBTQ activist. “It is disturbing that one of our human-rights campaigns could end up on such a despicable website as a result of algorithms that are totally opaque to both advertises and users,” said Jaime Kirzner-Roberts, the centre’s director of policy. “It is incumbent on platforms like Google to create safeguards that will prevent such occurrences on websites that peddle in hate, misinformation or propaganda.

Newsguard says the Santa Monica Observer, has published “inaccurate and misleading claims about COVID-19 and U.S. politics.” Newsguard says Les Moutons Rebelles is “an anonymously run French website that regularly publishes false information, including about the COVID-19 pandemic.” The airline’s ads have appeared alongside articles by Tyler Durden – an apparent pseudonym styled on the main character in the filmThe byline also appears on the story on conspiracy theories that will come true next year, among them “the Left’s plans to normalize and mainstream pedophilia” and a partnership between the United States and Ukraine to research and develop biological weapons – a claim promoted by Russian state media.

Google needs to investigate where their ads are placed or lose users

This article couldn’t cry harder if it tried lol

Damn, talk about misinterpreting Dead Kennedys

globepolitics This is a call for Google to ramp up its censorship efforts. The real issue is that Canadian people inadvertently fund the media by voting Liberal and then get conditioned by the media to vote Liberal. The Globe is a welfare queen licking the boots of he who signs the cheque.

There are no conspiracy theory anymore! Just people pointing out your lies and corruption!!

The government of Canada does the same thing with cbc lol

Except who actually do it on purpose!

A call to left wing allies
