BBV - Does Diebold have some pull with Google? [View All]

Yesterday, I found the Seattle Times article on Jeffrey Dean by using Google-News and searching on the word Diebold. Simple, no questionable logic or fussy infra-red scanning involved, just a simple one-word Google search.

Oddly enough, if I do the same one-word search today, there's no sign of the article. Oh, I can still search for Jeffrey Dean and find it, but the association between the word Diebold and the article has uhhhh - vanished. Poof! Not a trace! No sign it ever existed. (That's the neat thing about not having results on paper - if you don't like the results, there are always ways you can change them, without leaving muddy footprints all over the place....)

Now, one really can't fault anyone for distancing themselves from some convicts that were in their midst, and maybe I'm being a bit too untrusting, but it's almost as if someone didn't like the results of the search, and found the way to change them.

Wouldn't you think that trying to keep on top of all the news articles and getting unsavory ones disassociated from one's name would be a, ahem, bear of a job?
