My dad and my friend Seymour called my attention to this site, jewwatch.com, I was appalled. There's a petition to remove the site from Google:
To: Google.com
When performing a search for the word "Jew" on google.. the first result is a site that has been notorious for being anti-Semitic.. the site is called jewwatch.com .... Google is the # 1 search site and the fact that the first search result would yield an anti-Semitic site is all too common in a growing era of increased Anti-Semitism.... In order for Google to remove this, it needs a petition of over 50,000 requests....
Sincerely,
The Undersigned
Please take the time to sign this petition (here). Thanks!
3/18/09: An update from my wonderful buddy, Rachel Anderson, who points out that Google has fixed this problem (see here):
Rachel says: "There is a Press Release by th Anti-Defamation League Praising Google for Responding to Concerns About Rankings of Hate Sites here: http://www.adl.org/PresRele/Internet_75/4482_75.htm."
I thought that you might like to know that Google is working with the Anti-Defamation League to address its role in this (see here).
THANKS, RACHEL!
