Interesting Google Effect

If you go to Google News and do a search on John Kerry, you might be astounded at the number of wingnut - and I mean WING. NUT. - "news" sites you get sent to. Here are a few from the first page of results:

John Kerry, Mr. Insincerity - Town Hall, DC
Wanted for President: A Statesman, Not a Wiseacre - The Simon
Poll: Americans Think Terrorists Are Rooting For A Kerry Victory - PHXNews
John Kerry and His Whoppers - ChronWatch.com
France 'Wild for Kerry' - NewsMax.com
Kerry ready for war - WorldNetDaily
John Kerry Kicks His Lie-Machine Into Overdrive - Men's News Daily, CA
John Kerry to America: Forget 9/11 - ChronWatch.com
The Maureen Dowd Two Minute Mock: Headcase in a Responsible Land - Men's News Daily
John Kerry - Prince of Hypocrites - Intellectual Conservative, AZ
John Kerry: A Man For All Sides - Men's News Daily, CA
And that's just from the top half of the results page. These sites, I imagine, are probably doing their own Google-bombing and dominating the search returns. It also amazes me that Google News regards Men's News Daily, ChronWatch and the others shown above as legit news sources.

Okay, Buzzflash, APJ, BushWatch - your work is cut out for you. Get going!
