"The Harris campaign has been editing news headlines and descriptions within Google search ads that make it appear as if the Guardian, Reuters, CBS News and other major publishers are on her side, Axios has found.

Why it matters: It's a common practice in the commercial advertising world that doesn't violate Google's policies, but the ads mimic real news results from Search closely enough that they have news outlets caught off guard."

It’s her campaign’s google ads. AdWords is my job. You market yourself.

Are you against Trump marketing himself?

According to Google's ad transparency center, the Trump campaign isn't running these types of ads, but this technique has been used by campaigns before.
The ads say that they are sponsored, but it's not immediately clear that the text that accompanies real news links is written by the campaigns and not by the media publication itself."

OOF!

[OddBeMe]

It’s common practice to mimic sites. I’d say it’s poor taste in her campaign. But good anything and AdWords make their ads look legit so you’d click on them.

That's not becoming of a presidential candidate and it really shows the character of Trump that he doesn't do it himself.

Frankly it should be illegal to mislead the public like that, even the news agencies were stunned.

[OddBeMe]

My…god…not becoming of a candidate. Are you fucking serious?

[Juxtapose]

Yes.

Also, irrelevant.

[OddBeMe]

It’s pretty relevant when you refuse to hold both candidates to same standard.

[Juxtapose]

LOL the two are apples and oranges.

Kamala is a liar and Trump is selling something.

[OddBeMe]

Thank you for proving my point.

[Juxtapose]

Excuse me but when did somebody selling something overpriced amount to changing news headlines on Google?

[Juxtapose]

This is a cope on your part.

[OddBeMe]

It’s two candidates promoting themselves. Welcome to politics.

[Juxtapose]

To equate those to is not honest in my opinion.

[Juxtapose]

*those two

[OddBeMe]

Sorry it’s campaign marketing. I never liked it on either side. But Trump literally embraced Russia hacking the DNC and placing right wing bots into our social media.

Sorry if Google AdWords is a bit tame. The “sponsored” disclaimer is above each link.

[Juxtapose]

"Russia Russia" is lies.

Kamala is intentionally deceptive to the point where the news agencies were caught off guard.

[OddBeMe]

No. What I just texted happened. Literally. Not figuratively. Trump won. Not even Hillary doubts. We just say he invited Russia’s help.

[OddBeMe]

And sure, Kamala’s campaign is being deceptive. All google AdWords are deceptive. Those ads are made to look like top suggested websites. Just that they have “sponsored” written above.

Do you know I wrote and paid for an article to be published in multiple newspapers for a client? It looked like a real article about how wonderful it was to work at Frito Lay. But they paid the papers to print it next to real articles.

[Juxtapose]

Hahaha suuuure he did. "Russia Russia Russia" is a HOAX.

And that's scummy! You should be ashamed that you enabled that.

[OddBeMe]

And you know nothing about marketing. Your ignorance is also naivete and simply idiocy.

[Juxtapose]

Sociopath.

[DrPepper12]

That's disgusting and should be illegal. TY for letting me know about this undefendable dishonesty! She should be condemned for it and stop it.

[Juxtapose]

You're welcome and I am glad you agree!

[Avicenna]

Everything about Kamala and her campaign is fake.

[AviatorTom]

She's a politician. When did you ever think politicians have morals?

[Juxtapose]

Trump isn't doing the same tactics so.. yeeaaah..

[gorydetails]

Years ago, a voting populace would care. the dems truly are NPCs

[Alwayreckles93]

Let's just put Jesus first. Why people go nuts over politics geez

[Dongie]

Gee, I wonder why it doesn't seem to matter?

[worldscolide]

Seems like.
