from the try-googlebombing dept.
ZDnet: Steven Weinstock, a New York real estate investor and former yeshiva student, has launched RemoveJewWatch.com, an online petition asking Google to remove JewWatch.com (the #1 result when you search for "jew") from its index.
Says Google spokesman David Kane, "Google's search results are solely determined by computer algorithms that essentially reflect the popular opinion of the Web. Our search results are not manipulated by hand. We're not able to make any manual changes to the results."
(Interesting. Google.de doesn't give you JewWatch.com when you search for "jew." But we already knew that, didn't we?)

Is Weinstock being paid by JewWatch? It was unheard of until he started all the publicity.
Humanity has the stars in its future, and that future is too important to be
lost under the burden of juvenile folly and ignorant superstition.
