Google and Meta have come under scrutiny for allegedly censoring information related to an attempted assassination of former President Donald Trump. Various sources claim that Google manipulated search results to obscure news about the incident and redirected searches to Kamala Harris. Meta mistakenly applied fact-check warnings to photos of the event, labeling them as altered. The censorship allegations have sparked accusations of election interference in the 2024 election, with Senator Ted Cruz and other prominent figures calling for investigations. Trump has publicly denounced both companies on Truth Social, urging his followers to hold them accountable for their actions.
