New MS search engine Bing a tool of the devil, claims news network.

US right-wing propaganda TV network Fox News has its knickers twisted about Microsoft's new search engine, Bing.

It claims that the Vole's latest search engine makes it all too easy to view hardcore porn videos without even leaving the search engine.

What has got Fox upset is that Bing has an "autoplay" feature that lets users preview videos simply by hovering the mouse over them.

This means that the video will play without punters having to make the effort to visit the hardcore porn website and possibly undergo age screening procedures.

Fox moans that children and all good Reich-wing Christian Republicans who get upset at the thought of adult entertainment need to be protected from this sort of thing.

It claims that a lot of "family-oriented" pressure groups are demanding that search engines tighten up their censorship so that Republicans and children will have to present their credit card details before they get to see anything that might be salacious.

 Have they had a go at google or any other search engine for that matter, for allowing direct linking to free porn sites?

 The people who are complaining should go live in places with government controlled and censored internet ... then they'll complain about free of speech.
