Google has announced plans to completely purge independent media outlets from their search engine just in time for Christmas.

Eric Schmidt, executive chairman of Google’s parent company Alphabet, announced that Google is now working aggressively on a new algorithm designed to “de-rank” websites that go against popular mainstream opinion.

He openly admits that the influential RT and Sputnik are first on their radar to be purged from the net, with other similar sites likely to follow suit.

Wsws.org reports: In a question and answer session at the Halifax International Security Forum in Canada over the weekend, Schmidt laid out Google’s intentions. When asked if the internet giant had a role in preventing the “manipulation of information,” Schmidt stated, “We are working on detecting and de-ranking those kinds of sites—it’s basically RT and Sputnik.”
