Positive or Negative…

…appearing daily in the press is still exposure.

Google News is one of a number of online news sources that I read several times a day. Theoretically, Google News should have no bias because it the news articles that appear there are selected mechanically by software that searches the news. Other aspects of Google lead me to doubt this but that’s another post. Over the past couple of days reviews for one particular movie have been on the front page of Google News. All of the articles pointed to on Google News are very negative reviews. There is, apparently, nothing at all that is good about this movie. So, a bad movie that should probably get no press coverage at all has been on the front page of Google News for a whole week. Wow!
