More Censorship by Google News: Now U.S. Central Command News is Invisible
U.S. Central Command in Iraq (Centcom) has an active news service. I get regular press releases from it myself. But you won't find their releases via Google News. One excuse is that Centcom is "self-promoting". The way Reuters and AP promote their anti-military and often false stories is fine, however. No right of reply allowed! Bizzyblog has been doing a detailed investigation of just what is going on there.
The Centcom site has always been painfully slow to load (just another bit of the chronic bungling one gets from any army), however, so I rarely use their stuff. Maybe Google have given them up for a similar reason.
