Google Goofs #1

I like news. Sometimes it can be pretty entertaining stuff. I tend to avoid the talking heads of television news, so that leaves me with the written form.

The problem for me is that I don't get the newspaper, so I'm left with the strange world of internet news sources. I don't have any particular source, well unless you count Google's news search engine found at news.google.com.

I find that Google News is a pretty good way to find a wide range of stories from a variety of sources.

However, over the last few weeks I've noticed that the pictures they show next to the story links don't always match up with the headlines. Now I can understand that it's a search engine, and the headline story title comes from a different source as the picture, but still, sometimes it is just strange... or funny, or just plain offensive.

My goal with my ongoing Google Goofs post is to point that out with screenshots. The only editing I do to these pictures is cropping out the extraneous information. The rest is left to Google.

Here is the first, but I have a few already that I'm sitting on until next time.


Skin cancer? Tax blunder? Looks to me like he's really up to Middle-East oil drilling.
