What is Google up to?

This is the question Charles Johnson poses to his readers, but as you would expect it's just a rhetorical question because CJ already 'knows' what Google News is up to: they're discriminating against upstanding right-wing blogs like LGF (ehm, because it's a one man partisan effort and virtually news-free) and Powerline (oh wait, Powerline IS listed on Google News), and Michelle Malkin (whose blog also appears to be a one-person outfit devoid of news {the clue is in the title, oh Lizard Lord}) and, ehm, Daily Kos, that other well-known right-wing weblog.

Here's a simple solution that should keep all those moaning bloggers and Google happy: why doesn't Google just set up Google Views, a place to collect all the stuff posted to weblogs, from the mundane to the interesting? You'd have a disclaimer that these are NOT news professionals, that many of the items are distorted and biased, but you could still rank entries on http://views.google.com by popularity, relevance, date etc...

Come on Google, you know you want to do it.
