Many conservatives, including President Donald Trump, say Google is biased against Republicans, but just how biased is the company?

Google has a long history of facing claims of bias against right-leaning content on the internet. The company is more likely to “fact check” right-leaning websites; it reportedly maintains a “blacklist” of outlets that are prevented from showing up in some search results; and it once considered outright hiding conservative content from searchers, internal communications revealed.

There is, however, a mitigating factor for Google’s bias: The sheer amount of liberal content on the internet. If Google’s algorithms were totally unbiased, liberal content would probably still be suggested twice as often as conservative content.
