Google has defended the way its bosses greeted the election of Donald Trump, after criticism by right-wing media.

BBC reports that a video published on Wednesday by the Breitbart website shows senior executives commenting the morning after the 2016 election.

During the 60-minute presentation, Google co-founder Sergey Brin said he found the election “deeply offensive”.

Breitbart said the video showed evidence of Google’s inherent bias against Republicans.

Google defended itself by saying the executives had been expressing their “personal views” and it had no political bias.

In its story, Breitbart said the video had reached it via an anonymous source and showed the “panic and dismay” within Google following Mr Trump’s victory.

The video was aired soon after President Trump had said big technology companies were biased against Republicans.

In addition, US Attorney General Jeff Sessions had expressed “concern” about the way social media companies handled debate on their sites.

Google said the comments had been made “in the aftermath of a long and divisive election season”.

“Nothing was said at that meeting, or any other meeting, to suggest that any political bias ever influences the way we build or operate our products.

“To the contrary, our products are built for everyone and we design them with extraordinary care to be a trustworthy source of information for everyone, without regard to political viewpoint.”
