Google’s Search Gets It Right. ‘Completely Wrong” yields Mitt Romney as result

I simply love this story. I call it poetic justice that a Google Search on “Completely Wrong” yields the correct result; Mitt Romney. Mitt Romney is “Completely Wrong” for America.

Google search for ‘completely wrong’ yields page of Romney photos

(CNN) — To the amusement of Mitt Romney’s critics, a Google Image search for the phrase "completely wrong" on Wednesday returned a page nearly full of images of the Republican presidential candidate.

A Google spokesman said the gallery of photos is the unintentional result of normal Google analytics, which produce images associated with popular phrases in news headlines and search terms, and not the result of any effort to skew the results.

In this case, Google’s algorithms picked up on news coverage of Romney saying last week he was "completely wrong" when he made controversial statements last spring that 47% of Americans were "victims" and dependent on government. Romney took some political heat for the original comments, which were captured by a hidden camera at a private fundraiser in May and made public last month.

The former Massachusetts governor, speaking last Thursday on Fox News, disavowed his earlier statements.

"Clearly in a campaign with hundreds if not thousands of speeches and question-and-answer sessions, now and then you’re going to say something that doesn’t come out right," Romney said, "In this case, I said something that’s just completely wrong."

The Google results page of Romney photos was noticed Wednesday by tech blog Mashable, a CNN.com content partner, and other news sites.
