where we read:

On June 15th, 2004 the Google Adwords Team sent me a notification that
all of my four-line text ads had been discontinued due to
"unacceptable content." The ads involved included headlines such
"The Liberal Resource", "The Progressive Resource", "Bill
Clinton & More", "The Real Enron Scandal." The supporting text
included expressions such as "analysis, commentary and satire",
"complete liberal resource center", "caustic commentary", and
others. ....

As I learned from Google on June 16th, the issue was not the content of
my ads, but of the articles and features on the Perrspectives.com site
itself:

    At this time, Google policy does not permit the advertisement of
websites that contain "language that advocates against an individual,
group, or organization". As noted in our advertising terms and
conditions, we reserve the right to exercise editorial discretion when
it comes to the advertising we accept on our site. I have reviewed your
site and it contains language such as 'secretive, paranoid and
vengeance-filled' which we will not allow to run on our site at this
time. [Italics mine]

In the same email, the Google representative graciously offered to
provide me with help in censoring my own web site:

    I understand that you would like to promote specific political
opinions on your site. We are happy to allow you to run so long as
these opinions do not contain language that advocates against an
individual, group, or organization. I suggest that you remove these
references from your website in order to run on Google. [Italics mine]

In response, on June 16 I told the Google rep that their decision to
drop my ads had to be reversed due both to the specifics of my site and
the broader issue at work. First, Perrspectives.com, while admittedly
offering left-of-center content, is an independent, "equal
opportunity" provider of analysis and commentary. For example, while
the offending text cited by Google ("secretive, paranoid and
vengeance-filled") came from a piece harshly critical of President
Bush ("The Smallness of King George"), other articles took on
Democratic Party orthodoxy ("Identity Politics and the Threat from
the Left"), John Kerry and John Edwards ("States' Blights"), and
Ralph Nader ("Unsafe and Any Speed"). Secondly, I noted that any
assertions or claims made on the site, even ones using language as
admittedly vitriolic as "secretive" and "paranoid", were
thoroughly supported in the text, usually with links to other articles,
documentation or quotes. Just as important, readers are encouraged to
provide feedback, even if it is negative. That Feedback link is on
every page of the site

More than any consideration specific to Perrspectives.com, though, is
the larger issue of de facto censorship and threat to free speech which
must inevitably result from the Google Adwords "language that
advocates against" standard:

    The current Google Adwords editorial guidelines constitute
selective censorship that cannot be justified or sustained. By these
standards, virtually EVERY newspaper, opinion journal, political
party/campaign and religious organization MUST be barred from
advertising on Google.

As of June 20, 2004, I have not heard back from Google support or PR
representatives, as I had requested. ....

Given the recent flaps over  the apparent double-standard in prime-time
advertising at CBS (running virulently anti-Clinton ads by the
right-wing Citizens United, refusing to air ant-Bush ads by MoveOn
during the Super Bowl), I was immediately suspicious of anti-liberal
bias by Google towards advertisers. Doing a quick check, I found no
shortage of conservative advertisers currently on Google that made me
seem like Mother Theresa in comparison.

These following conservative sites, many of which are decidedly to the
right of Attila the Hun, currently advertise using Google Adwords:

    * Value Watch. This site advocates against Democrats, liberals and
progressives of all stripes, and calls out right-wing bogeymen Ted
Kennedy and Michael Moore by name. It most assuredly uses "language
that advocates against an individual, group or organization."
    * Republican Gear. This site not only sells Republican political
items, it sells items that "advocate against" individuals and
organizations" including t-shirts with slogans like "Friends Don't
Let Friends Vote Democratic", as well as one picturing Osama Bin Laden
stating "I Want You to Vote for John Kerry."
    * The Right Review. The Right Review also "advocates against" John
Kerry, Democrats and the ACLU. It also includes a cartoon of John Kerry
dropping his pants.
    * The Conservative Index. This site calls John Kerry "scary"
and calls him "duplicitous." Perhaps among conservatives, those
expressions are terms of endearment.
    * Right Wing Conspiracy. This is apparently another home for
right-wing fun and frolic.
    * Michael Moore Hates America. Sounds like a site that "advocates
against an individual" to me.  Yet the Google Adwords team confirmed to
a Perrspectives reader that Michael Moore Hates America does NOT
violate the same editorial guidelines by which it dropped
Perrspectives.com.
