search, their very name has become the verb that means surf something on the web. they have, i believe, in excess of 90% of mobile searches. in europe, for example, i believe they hold 95% of the general web search market, so there are concerns that they hold a monopoly in this market. do they hold a monopoly n your view? >> guest: in my almost two decades as an antitrust enforcer i learned early on you shouldn't confuse size with power. and in this case i think the question about whether google is truly a monopolist is, you know, very ambiguous. there's lots of evidence that points in the other way. first of all, you can't really be a monopolist unless you can really force consumers to purchase your product, and you have the ability to raise prices significantly. i don't think that evidence exists here. second, when you look at how the market's structured, um, and you look at the success of bing which didn't exist two years ago and now has 29% of the market, you, you know, it suggests that there are not impediments to entry. and i think we need to rook at this mar

it is a web traffic of black sites serving during our the liberal sites and the conservative leaning sites. a couple things. first in terms of total traffic does much more traffic to the left. second, traffic is much more concentrated actually on the right. if you see what traffic there is it is a few sites comparative to the sites like a free republic or related sites. so this leads to very different dynamics for the public cycles we have seen including in 2010 it's more important in the greater resources for the liberals and conservatives we started to see some evidence of that narrowing but in terms of the traffic we are nowhere close to that. >> when we talk about the mainstream media "new york times," "washington post," etc., etc., what's been their success or non-success on the internet? >> i think it's important to understand first that most of the news consumed on - the traditional what was media. cnn, nbc, i know that doesn't last but everyone's like yahoo! which is quite some majors or the washington post. what they are doing is aggravating and then read posting the content

attack dog web site. it's not. it's a web site run by the obama re-election campaign.ow is bernie goldberg who joins us from charlotte, north carolina this evening. attack watch.com. what is it? >> well, let me tell you what it is as if you came up with this web site. let's say you told the people watching you, you know, people call me a lot of bad names. and a lot of these things aren't true so i'm going to set up a web site where you people at home can report all this nasty stuff people say about me that isn't true. if you ever tried that, they would have to change the name of the show from the o'reilly factor to the owe wienie factor. >> bill: owe whining factor. i have to be honest i would like to do it. >> you don't want to do it. >> bill: i wouldn't do it. president launching re-election campaign who does something like this. this doesn't exude confidence. this exudes weakness. >> what about contracting the record though, bernie. correcting the record for slams and smears that aren't true? >> well, you know, correcting the record is fine. but to get people to go

in europe they hold 29% of the general web search market. there are concerns that the hold a monopoly in this market. >> in my almost two decades, i learned early on that you should not confuse size with power. in this case, i think the question about whether google is truly a monopolist is very ambiguous. you cannot really be a monopolist unless you can really force consumers to purchase your product and you have the ability to raise prices significantly. i don't think that evidence exists here. when you look at how the market is structured and you look at the success of bing which now has 29% of the market, it suggests there are not impediments to entry. we need to and look at this market dynamically. we should not just take a snapshot approach but think about how the market is changing. we always think in terms of just traditional search. actually there are dozens and dozens of ways of finding out information. if you want to buy a product, used amazon or ebay. other types of information, go to facebook. in the search market, google is onl

web mail, search engines. news and media assets including everything from entertainment to sports, only about 304%. the types of political science, like blocks or interest groups, campaign sites, the new types of political information that was supposed to change everything are about one-tenth of 1 percent of all web traffic. >> how many people were hits does that represent? >> larger than you would think. part of the issue is that people visit lots and lots of sites. according to some members, an average visitor may hit 80 or 90 pages in the day, which is a lot. at the same time the portion of traffic that is going to political places is quite small. >> barack obama, 2008 and the internet. >> i think that it is pretty clear that he would not have been the democratic nominee without the internet. a very close race. the internet was very important in his success. some of this is pretty well known. some parts of the story are less well-known. for example, very difficult to imagine him winning the democratic race

so the hyperlinks of course by the way the web works. hyper links in theory toward the website on the web, but in practice what we have seen is that within the web as a whole, within categories of content, even within subcategories of content like sites on abortion or gun control or even just left-leaning site on abortion or right wing sites on gun control. you find very, very unequal patterns of later distribution. most of the links on gun control, one of my for example, go to sites like nra.org. and this has big implications for how people actually get news and information about politics. because what they are doing an awful lot of the time is going to google and type in gun-control and they are looking at the first page of results or even the first half of the first page of results and they're going to those sites. and the rankings that google shows to a large extent are based on the number of hyperlinks that that site receives. and hyperlinks are so heavily concentrated what you're really doing is you are channeling, your channeling
