Verge is doing Google's bidding? I get the feeling that any information that counters the narrative that you're selling is "fake news", right?

Western intelligence agencies all agree that a foreign adversary is working to influence elections. This is a problem. The monopoly power of a handful of tech giants is also a problem but bringing it up in this context is a perfect example of whataboutism.

The Verge is absolutely doing Google's bidding here. Google's words and documents speak for themselves. Just like The Verge reporting on Damore without actually publishing his own words. This is actually fake news. You can't just manufacture stories and not supply the primary source because it counters your spin.
