Google Billboards & busted news

The owners of stephen-conroy.com were directed to our show last week where I showed how their site could benefit from a better redirection. Talk about networking :) They've done half the work & it's already had a positive effect. I don't know about you but my Google news alerts are busted. One of our other viewers is getting news alerts with links sending him to hacked sites. That's not real helpful Google. Is Google broken?
