GOOGLE AND THE URBAN LEGEND OF THE DAY

By Michelle Malkin  •  March 23, 2005 08:39 AM

Lots of readers are writing about a graphic used on Google’s search page yesterday. It showed the word “Google” half full of water, dripping into a bowl. Readers have interpreted the graphic to be an anti-Terri Schiavo commentary.

IT’S NOT.

I checked into it yesterday. If you clicked on the graphic, Google took you to a page about World Water Day, which was designated by the United Nations.

Weird timing, yes. But it was not some sort of stealth editorial.

Plenty of reasons to complain about regarding Google (see here, here, here, and here), but this water bowl thing is not one of them.
