Comments on: Google or Bing? Where's the pic of Sanford's lover?

Despite "Maria Belen Shapur photo" being one of Thursday's top search phrases, neither a Google search nor a Bing search has turned up anything. Come on, engines.

I'm far more disappointed that the users of Fark couldn't find a picture. Those guys are crafty.

@cvaldes1831,

Yes, they are. Very crafty indeed.

As a South Carolinian and a product of the public school systems as well, one question continues to plague me:

Why are you encouraging this?

Honestly, I think both of the search engines would do well to stay out of this. This worthless sensationalism is exactly why I am slightly frightened that print media is on it's death bed.

Thanks for wasting my time with this completely worthless article. Do you have editors at CNET? Or is it just a free-for-all of journalisitic masturbation?

Waste your time? Did the completely obvious headline not do enough to steer you clear, or are you just a little slow and thought the rest of the article would be wildly unrelated?

Or maybe it took you 5 minutes to get through reading the 9-word headline?

maybe sandlapper has a point about calrolina's public school system. He want taught where argentina is, dave_man123 want taught to read.

@assman

What kind of sad loser would be so desperate to look at the site anyway.

Hey! You're right, it IS down.

The fact that you're even mentioning Bing goes to show what a great job Microsoft's done promoting it. I mean, would you even have mentioned LiveSearch in this article a year ago... or even two months ago?

Bing? What's that?

I've been under a rock for a little while and haven't been watching TV...so I'm not sure what that is. I googled it and the only things that came up were ads for Windows 7 and Bing Crosby albums....

Hmmm...

I remember when newspapers vied for the big celebrity scoop. Then it was television and magazines. So now it's search engines mud wrestling for the dirty laundry. Pathetic. Now get off my lawn.
