Shareholders Warn Alphabet That Its ‘Viewpoint Bubble’ Will Eventually Burst
Washington, D.C. — At this week’s annual meeting of Google parent company Alphabet, shareholder activists with the National Center for Public Policy Research’s Free Enterprise Project (FEP) will call for an independent committee to assess the risks of the apparent lack of viewpoint diversity among Alphabet’s board and senior leadership.
“Effective corporate governance…. requires genuine viewpoint diversity to reduce groupthink, surface dissenting risks, and ensure rigorous oversight,” FEP writes in its supporting statement for Proposal 8.
As he presents Proposal 8 (“Viewpoint Diversity Risk Report”), FEP Executive Director Steve Milloy will tell shareholders:
Climate skeptics were demonetized because of management’s viewpoint discrimination. You can go on the Heartland Institute’s YouTube channel today and watch the 2022 Nobel prize winner in physics, John Clauser, expose the fraudulent science behind the climate scam. But the Heartland Institute cannot earn any money off it because Alphabet considers what the 2022 Nobel prize winner in physics has to say about climate science to be hate speech…
Censoring and ignoring viewpoints is bad business. Viewpoint diversity is essential in society and for Alphabet. Living in a viewpoint bubble is dangerous. Reality will pop it every time.
