"the media censors information constantly"
The media censors nothing. The media in question would run anything if the price was right. It's the viewers and listeners who dictate what is shown and what isn't. If NBC ran a Remington rifle advertisement on a Monday night during prime time, the number of complaints would be staggering. This is not censorship, this is common business practice. Do you want to keep the viewers you have or [censored] them off so they go elsewhere?
If you disagree with Google's idea of what is acceptable and what isn't, then don't use them. There are hundreds of other search engines on the internet. Everyone has a choice. It's up to you. You either turn the channel or sit there and complain.
If Yahoo.com and Equipped.org go to WNBC and wish to place an ad in the same time slot, are they going to choose Yahoo, with millions of users or Equipped with a few hundred? Is that censorship or deductive reasoning?
Wal-Mart isn't the biggest company in the world because they sell bullets and fishing gear. Perhaps in certain areas those are big sellers, but overall, Wal-Mart could drop those items entirely and it would barely register in the overall bottomline.
Chris, you and Mr Ritter are very knowledgeable and have a clear passion for this lifestyle/hobby/job. But even you have to admit that the overall meaning of being "Equipped To Survive" is for a select portion of the population. It's a fringe hobby. Something like Ham Radio is no different. Many people enjoy it, but it isn't mainstream.
Google isn't censoring anything. They are listing what the mainstream internet user wants to see, and those are the people that pay the bills.
