THE GUERRILLA ANGEL REPORT — Contact the offending websites directly Google tells presidential candidate Rick Santorum. Googling the ex-Senator’s last name often results in a lewd definition in the search results. This began to happen after Santorum, in speaking to the Associated Press, compared homosexuality to pedophilia and bestiality.
From CNN: That [the pedophilia and bestiality comments] angered gay rights supporters, including gay podcast host and sex columnist Dan Savage, who launched a campaign for his listeners to redefine Santorum’s name. Savage created a website to promote the winning definition . . . and enough bloggers linked to it that the spoof site eventually eclipsed Santorum’s campaign website in search rankings.

From Politico: A Google spokesperson responded to Santorum by advising that users who want “content removed from the Internet should contact the webmaster of the page directly.”
