"Here is a recap of what happened in the search forums today, through the eyes of the Search Engine Roundtable and other search forums on the web.Search Engine Roundtable Stories:\n\nDon't Like A Google Search Result? Tell Them In The Forums\n\t\tFor the first time in my six plus years of reporting on search forums, I spotted a thread where Google has made a change to a specific query based on a thread.

That has changed with a Google Web Search Help where one user reported that his search for [site:whitehouse.gov\n\t\tGoogle AdSense Login Issue Two Different Issues?\n\t\tYesterday, we reported of wide spread Google AdSense login issues. It seems like after receiving more information from Google on the matter, it might be two separate issues.

Here is a picture of it: As you can imagine, this is an extremely offensive and outrageous theme to find on Google.
