So Google isn't building a website?
Correct. Trump just claimed Google issued a press release substantiating his claim but he was lying again. See https://www.wjhg.com/content/news/Despi ... 02941.html.

What Trump said is:
“I want to thank Google. Google is going to develop a website — it’s going to be very quickly done, unlike websites of the past — to determine if a test is warranted and to facilitate testing at a nearby convenient location,”
That's not what Google described in its tweet. Also Google decided to do what it is doing AFTER the President made a fool of himself and needed to save face.
Well, I believe that I must tell the truth
And say things as they really are
But if I told the truth and nothing but the truth
Could I ever be a star?

It's not a shit news source. That is the conservative cop out. When credible sources tell them what they would prefer not to believe they attack the credible news sources. Not that CNN never makes mistakes. But it's a more credible new source than, say, Fox News is.

But that doesn't really matter. You can Google around for yourself. Trump made his Statement. Google was blindsided. There was an effort by a relatively small company called Verify that is within the same larger corporation as Google is. And it was a local San Fransisco area project designed for emergency responders.

When Trump made the statement Google was not working on such a thing at all. Trump said this:
Google is going to develop a website — it’s going to be very quickly done, unlike websites of the past — to determine if a test is warranted and to facilitate testing at a nearby convenient location,” Trump said at the press conference. “We have many, many locations behind us, by the way. We cover this country and large parts of the world, by the way. We’re not gonna be talking about the world right now, but we cover very, very strongly our country. Stores in virtually every location. Google has 1,700 engineers working on this right now. They have made tremendous progress.”
Google did not have 1,700 engineers working on anything like that. Now, since Trump made a fool of himself, Google has tweeted:
Google is partnering with the US Government in developing a nationwide website that includes information about COVID-19 symptoms, risk and testing information.
That's not what Trump described. You can get what's described by that tweet at the CDC web site already. Google is just facilitating a face-save.

It's not semantic. Saying Company X is doing something when they aren't is a falsehood.

So yes, you're talking about the partisanship of news outlets. Got it. I agree with you, CNN and Fox News are just about equal for their unstated bias.

I was also responding to SG calling CNN a "shit source" when he loves to quote a source that make Fox News look moderate.

And technically, it looks like Google was assisting the other company that is working on whatever website. So it can be argued both ways... the epitome of a semantic argument

That's fine. Conservative Treehouse deep dives subjects like FISA abuse and China trade war. They don't really do news much.

Now Gateway Pundit is full blown crazy, but hilarious. When I need to understand the truth after Gateway, I usually go to Hotair because they hate Trump. Conservative, but hate Trump.

I actually don't watch any news, just read.

I got you.

I love the news but have to take it all with a grain of salt and know that when I listen to CNN/Fox that there's a major bias there. I like Reuters and honestly, Drudge. Drudge does will linking you to Fox, CNN, Reuters, AP, state/local news, etc... There's a bias for sure but I've noticed in the past few years that he will call out Republicans/Trump without hesitation.

Word is Drudge sold. People have been guessing that for about 6 months, because Drudge used to be pro-Trump, but then started linking articles unfavorable to Trump.
