Public Sticky notes
``Are we turning the Internet into a tabloid, destroying the truth? How do you protect the truth when we have witnessed so many character assassinations?''
Schrage said Google is ``content neutral'' and is making a major effort to help all campaigns and commentators get their message out. ``For us, one question is: How do we democratize the dialogue without exacerbating the ugliness?''
