New Google Favicon
Google's favicon is hosted at google.com/favicon.ico and it's a 16x16 pixels image, a standard size for favicons. Google replaced the upper-case "G" in blue border, green and red borders with a lower-case purple "g" in a rounded corner rectangle.
The first time when I saw the new favicon at Google Image Search, I thought there was something wrong with my browser's cache or I typed an incorrect address. Google's new favicon is less cheerful and comforting, but it makes a lot of sense: the small g is a symbol for infinity (∞). A googol (10100) is just a poor approximation for the huge amount of information that needs to be indexed, organized and made useful by Google.
{ Thanks for the tip, Louis, John and Aleksandr. }
Update: If you want the old favicon back, try this Greasemonkey script (requires Greasemonkey for Firefox, Opera or a userscript plug-in for other browsers).
Update 2: Search Engine Land has an official position from Google. "We recognized there was a need for a Google icon that would better work across multiple applications including web, mobile and client applications. We felt the small 'g' had many of the characteristics that best represent our brand: it's simple, playful, and unique. We will be looking to improve and enhance this icon as we move forward."
Update 3: Google says this is not the final favicon. "We tried in total more than 300 permutations [some of them are displayed below]. It was much harder than we thought at first. We wanted something distinctive and noticeable, so we aimed toward transparency or semi-transparency, so the image would have a more distinctive noticeable shape than just a block. We wanted something that embraced the colorfulness of the logo, yet wouldn't date itself." If you have some suggestions for Google's favicon, send them here.
Update: The favicon was updated in January 2009.

perhaps its just one of the things they do with the google or orkut homepage, they keep changing the look of the image to suit the season, holiday etc.

I just noticed it today and I don't like it. The other "G" favicon was much better, and easily recognizable as the "G" in Google.

The new logo is less recognisable but I like it because it is more subtle and (@Aaron) much easier on the eyes...

I also like the old google favicon. But in the next fewdays, I think I will like the new favicon and forget about the old favicon :D
ReplyDelete Google New Favicon precursor too new revolutionary interface update? Why change something as inconspicuous (too normal end user – but obvious to web techies) as a favicon but so OFF standard of the current branding. They've (big 3) all had similar interfaces forever, great time since the MSN/Yahoo distraction to make an in your face, one up move. I can only hope, change rules!
ReplyDeleteI am no expert on the subject but I heard a hand writing expert on TV once say people who signed their name with the beginning letters huge were arrogant.
People who signed their names with letters of the same size were humble. If it was hard to tell if the letter was upper or lowercase, even humbler.
I have been signing my name with lowercase for awhile since hearing this.
Maybe this is Googles way of reminding the user and themselves that we all need to stay humble?- AnonymousMay 30, 2008 at 9:05 AM
What Google actually has done is to re-rotate(turn back) the symbol to earlier version, so "∞" to "8" as it was. Beyond this, the "8" interprets the lower-case favicon "g".

It does seem very strange for such a strongly branded company to suddenly change its favicon. Definitely, wise eyes will be keeping an eye out for further, more significant changes. But perhaps, on the other hand, as all of us do from time to time, Google just felt the need to freshen up?

The old G is better in that it is immediately recognizable and "prominent". The new "g" is more humble and it doesn't stand out even as an icon.

The new google favicon it's not just a lowercase "G", it's also the "android" icon, if you carefully look at it, you could see the chest+neck+head+hair (sort of msn one) and this means they are pushing the company and project to a more popular and massive one, putting them to the same level of us, good hit

is it smaller in bytes than the former one? the new one, the little g, is 1150 bytes. Anyone know how many bytes the former one was?

the new one _is_ smaller: 1150 bytes vs. 1406. With the volume of traffic google gets, that change probably saves google money in bandwidth.
ReplyDelete @Chantelle:
The icon you see next to Firefox's search box is hardcoded in a configuration file, so it's not loaded from Google. You can edit this file:
C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\searchplugins\google.xml
and replace the value of the Image tag with the base64 encoding of the new favicon. This site should help.(... continuing the previous comment)
Here's a screenshot that shows the new favicon next to Firefox's search box.
I also posted the code you need to use in the config file:

I don't know. I cleared my cache and I'm still seeing the capital G.

The favicon hasn't been updated at all data centers, so it depends which data center handles your request. You might other services (image search, Google News) or direct addresses like: http://22.214.171.124/favicon.ico.- AnonymousMay 30, 2008 at 1:28 PM

ReplyDelete Nick, www.google.com goes to either www.google.com or www.google.com/ig depending on if you are logged in or not and depending on if you have iGoogle set to classic mode or not. It has been this way for a super long time and has nothing to do with the changes from today. Since I use classic mode, then www.google.com stays www.google.com and does not redirect to www.google.com/ig

old one was much better. this is ugly and hard to find on a busy tab bar...
ReplyDelete - AnonymousMay 30, 2008 at 5:20 PM
If you use a CRT monitor and have set it for a high pixel density for viewing photographs or for viewing text fonts in print quality, the favicon can be incredibly small. The old favicon with a relative large white space within the upper case "G" could be recognized by the large white space. The new one has smaller white spaces and can be unrecognizable when too small.
I opened the new favicon in XnView and zoomed in and out to and from tiny sizes. I discovered range in which the old upper case "G" remains recognizable but the lower case one disappears into a blob before both disappear.
This could also affect people with vision problems.
The older one is better because it remains more functional when scaled down. - AnonymousMay 30, 2008 at 5:42 PM
The new one is barely visible in Firefox 3 RC1 on Mac OS X, where the default gray is darker.
Maybe adding a white background would help. - AnonymousMay 30, 2008 at 5:53 PM
I'm glad to see I'm not the only one who thinks the new Google favicon should be shift+deleted. I'm sure there must be things behind that we can't understand right now because we don't have a clear picture of everything.
And I mean far beyond the symbolic layer of it all.

Google is being Google. Everyone else revamps their entire interface. Google changes a tiny little letter and the whole world notices. It's KISS at its finest.

Old one needed to be changed. However, this new favicon... I hate.
Thought my browser was hijacked at first! This is a worse decision than calling their personalized homepage "iGoogle."
As soon as GreaseMonkey works with FF3, I'll be installing that script to bring back the original logo. (Although on this computer it's still displaying the old logo.)
I saw that "g" and thought it was BabyCenter or something. Looks to me like a pregnant woman with a bun hairstyle.- AnonymousMay 30, 2008 at 11:40 PM
The previous one was much better. The new favicon doesn't have the typical, cool "google" look!
ReplyDelete I tried going to a few different Google sub-sites, and I think this is a way for Google to distinguish their main portal (Google home or iGoogle) from their other specialized searches.
Their other services already have different icons. I don't think this is any uglier, and it makes sense. Goggle's smaller, more specific searches show a smaller "g".- AnonymousMay 31, 2008 at 2:09 AM

the old one was just great... now i can't even find it among other tabs especially in Opera where the tab background is also blue... the only pardon would be if a new google logo would contain the "g" or "8" as the first letter
ReplyDelete Google is smart to keep its identity fresh. Their brand is perhaps the most recognizable one in the world. It is certainly on the way to being so. With such a recognizable brand and one that we interact with each day a fresh look can be good (look at all the posts on the topic).
It would not be a good idea for everyone to change their favicon. However, if you do I'm sure that there will be a huge database (searchable, through Google) of Favicons. Quick trademark yours!- AnonymousMay 31, 2008 at 10:40 AM
g is also equal to 9.8 m/s^2, which renders the new icon meaningless.

I think there will be a big relaunch this year (g--> 8 --> 2008) We will get surprised again I think!

Seriously, who cares really? It's just an icon. Get over yourselves
ReplyDelete Considering the amount of time the average person spends on Google searches for every inquiry imaginable, this unsightly new impostor icon does have some relevance besides from just another nit pick to complain about. Its counter intuitive stylistic idiocy,why change something that people know and like? makes me want to close any Google tabs i have open.
for all those that are perturbed or annoyed i suggest letting Google know however you see fit

Hehe it's funny how everyone reacts to minor changes made by Google :-)
ReplyDelete - AnonymousJune 1, 2008 at 12:42 PM
I don't like it as much...
It's the wrong colour too; too purple. I don't think this is minor. It's incredibly scary and ugly, and does not reflect the positive image I've known Google to have... It does look ghostly and ghastly. It's hideous. I disabled favicon settings in about:config in firefox but I miss gmail's icon, so I guess I will have to find a way to change the fav icon. It's important because people who have many tabs open at once (I have ten open right now) can find search results pages (for example) and Gmail easier. That's why they were created in the first place. Seriously google, what the hell?
ReplyDeleteWhat exactly is this new squiggly thing? Okay, I do know what it is, but what is it doing on my open tabs... I don't want to use Greasemonkey to bring the old one back, and I sure hope Google reacts to user feedback on the icon... The old one was so much more practical... I wish they'd just stay practical.. that's what they're know for.. I don't feel a need for artistic little favicon understatements right now...

I don't like it too, it's a tiny icon but a huge change!
http://edi.budimilic.com/2008/06/01/new-google-favicon/ I remembered some time ago (few months ago actually) personally visiting a supposedly Google's hidden experimental website (forget where I saw it, the founder proved that the experimental website comes from Google by proving that the IP address is the same as Google's IP address), guess what their theme color is... purple.
If (and only if) that website is an official Google project (instead of some Google's employees who have some spare time for their personal projects and host its site on a google server), I think this might be the beginning of the migration to the Google interface (which is an extremely radical change).
I disclaim that any of what I have said must be true.- AnonymousJune 2, 2008 at 12:05 PM
I think the mistake here is to not be literal enough. The new thing is better than the old thing but by what degree of seperation? Based on facts alone one can see that the popularity of Google is based on this icon but also on other logos as well.

Sucky! I was thinking since the change happened about how much I don't like the new favicon, and I like how there are so many comments against the new "g" when I did a search for "new google favicon"
This is only one of two bad moves Google has ever done, the other was to take away the various "sort by" functionality of Youtube. People didn't like that, either... and Google changed it back! The new favicon is weak, wimpy, and just plain boring. Why violate your brand?
The fact that so many people, including myself, searched "new google favicon" > came to this post > and posted their dislike should mean something.
I hate looking at it, makes me sick and strangely uncomfortable.- AnonymousJune 3, 2008 at 11:08 AM

Though the old favicon was not that good, the new one sucks even more.
It makes me feel uncomfortable. Can't adjust to it. Maybe i'm addicted, but the new favicon is less noticeable, i usually work with 10-20 open web pages, and many of them ar G pages, its hard to identify G tab, because the new favicon is blurred. Its not the problem of G or g, it should be more flashy, because its important, it should be visible even when you are not even looking at it. Google, maybe your designer is on drugs?
ReplyDeleteSince years now google havent made any bad decisions, all the tools are great and people meet then with hands open. This decision is first that i dont like. And as i can see - i am not the only one. Maybe G stopped testing their stuff before release?

I prefer the old favicon because it was more distinctive. Easier to see, easier to recognize which tab in the multitude was Google's. I open lots of tabs and the older one made it easier to find my search engine. Not everyone uses a white browser theme, so this new one pretty much disappears into the background. On the original favicon, the capital G echoed the design of the logo...again making it easily identifiable. Also making it easier to see: the white background and color bars. It also looks like the "g" for ghostscript or Getty photo images website, so nothing original here. No, it doesn't make them look humble. Was that the point? Going for the Uriah Heep look?

Change is good. Try driving on a different side of the road. Try...oh, wait a minute... Maybe use some judgment first?
Okay, let's judge this by Google's stated goal: "We felt the small 'g' had many of the characteristics that best represent our brand: it's simple, playful, and unique. "
New Favicon: (1) Simple? Try blurry and shadowed. (2) Playful? How about boring. Using the faded blue favored by over-stressed executive types? (3) Unique? Clearly not. There are lots of examples of the "g" favicon already in use. And at 16x16 the font differences are way to subtle to make a difference to people's perceptions.
Old Favicon: (1) Simple. Clear and easy to see. Printed (not cursive) without excessive shadowing. (2) Playful. Yes, white with primary color bars on the sides makes the icon represent a child's building block. Something to play and build with...Google's previous image. (3) Unique. No doubt about this. No others constructed like this, unless there are some copy-cats out there that haven't shown themselves.
I'm writing this because some days after the release of this new favicon I am finding it more and more irritating to reference Google pages in my browser. - AnonymousJune 5, 2008 at 9:37 AM
tis a quite disgusting new logo...
looks like a 2002 online games site called gamesonline or something. (not a real site, i mean it's old and unoriginal) Ok change is good. In fact if an entire new look for Google came out I would probably feel better about it... But this is a week later and I am still not feeling it. It just blends in too much and doesn't scream Google enough for me to spot it in my tabs. Perhaps a stronger frame for the new icon? But still they need to make the rest of their site match the stylistic change. Most websites, I really, really, really don't care about the favicon.... but this is Google and I use/need to use it a lot.
ReplyDelete- AnonymousJune 5, 2008 at 3:09 PM

new favicon = cognitive dissonance
That might be a little too strong, but it's not far off. Keep brand constancy - not only from the search/company classic "Google" but even to the favicon used for the search toolbar in Firefox.

I just submitted what I feel will be the winning Google Favicon. It is a simple little remix of the current one. I just added the other 3 colors.
Actually I have two versions. The only difference between them is that little horn that pops off the top of the "g" is red in one and yellow in the other. I think the red one is stronger.

Please put back the old icon or something with the upper case G like some of the samples shown. This lower case g looks like an 8, which is definitely not identifiable with Google. I thought it was something temporary for Google's 8th anniversary or so.
ReplyDelete Please, bring the old favicon back. With the new favicon up, I feel like I'm looking at a phishing site or something differnt. Change is good, but Google has achieved "utility" status, as in... Google is not just a service, but an essential part of life for many.

Huh. I could've sworn I posted here the day they changed the favicon. Maybe my post didn't submit properly.
Regardless, I by far prefer the old favicon. It was one of the best I've ever seen.
Please bring it back, Google. - AnonymousJune 23, 2008 at 12:26 PM
Google's official logo is still the same so when I see the fancy 'g' I don't think Google, I think mistake.

I do not like this new icon at all. It is so bland, the color is not appealing. I notice tabs with no favicon more than the g, something about it makes me want to look away from it.
It has been around a month since they changed it and I expected I would get used to the change and like it, but this isn't the case, this is a very bad icon. Check the length of this thread hopefully G realized they made mistake, let head(s) roll , sell the XXX guy to M$.
Still this would be to embarrassing for G.
The "thing" is as cool and catchy as the logo of mid fourty women soap. uagh!
I'll try the grease monkey script but i don't know if it's able to change my FF search bar icon. If not we might do an extension.
Cheers folks.- AnonymousJuly 1, 2008 at 7:44 AM
The new icon is the most terrible among those shown...I preferred the old one!!!

I too was originally worried that something had hijacked my browser. I finally did a google search to findout if it was responsible for this change. Thing is, while relieved that malware is not the case the new favicon reminds me of an old pair of bent goggles or eyewear....

They should use an ANIMATED favicon.
Not a fast blinking one, but unobtrusive color changes in the border.
The old G had a colored border, so the new g could have a colored border that slowly changes colors.
This would be cool. - AnonymousJuly 8, 2008 at 8:23 PM
I prefer the old one, but what really gets me is the fact that Google has been spending all this time stewing over what favicon to use ("We tried in total more than 300 permutations...It was much harder than we thought at first.")instead of putting their time and effort into responding to repeated requests from users to add a task/to-do list feature to their products (see Google Groups: Petition for a Todo List).

Google's new favicon does not have adequate contrast between the "g" and its background, especially when the background is about the same color as the "g", as it is on my screen. We need the old "G" favicon, or a way to make the new background a solid color that contrasts with the "g".

WHAT THE @!&($&( GOOGLE! I've thought your company was brilliant until NOW! What's with this unrecognizable, barely visible, pathetic g? Where is my capital G with the nice white, square background!?
ReplyDelete I think this new icon is clever. It softens the hard edges of a bullying capital 'G'. The 2 circular swirls of this Times Romanesque lower case 'g' make it look more like an unthreatening ant. These swirls also hint at the double 'o's in the company's name. Turn it a bit on its side, and the icon also looks like reading glasses (which to a middle-aged user such as myself, is suggestive of one of the first things I need to find before I can find other things).

Why would you want to keep G-oogle instead of google in the main page?..either change G to g or switch back to our old favicon!...
Changes suck! - AnonymousAugust 14, 2008 at 8:23 PM
I have found the old google favicon file! It is hosted at http://code.google.com/favicon.ico
ReplyDelete - AnonymousAugust 28, 2008 at 6:34 AM
I *love* the new favicon. The lowercase "g" is typographically far more elegant. I'm trying to figure out how they got the edge to anti-alias so well in the .ico format. Google, what's your secret?
ReplyDelete - AnonymousSeptember 2, 2008 at 9:25 PM
I really don't understand Google's need to change its flavicon. Why must everything be changed so frequently in this cyber world? The old one was better anyway. JMHO

The Morningstar Star Rating for Stocks is assigned based on an analyst's estimate of a stocks fair value. It is projection/opinion and not a statement of fact. Morningstar assigns star ratings based on an analyst's estimate of a stock's fair value. Four components drive the Star Rating: (1) our assessment of the firm's economic moat, (2) our estimate of the stock's fair value, (3) our uncertainty around that fair value estimate and (4) the current market price. This process culminates in a single-point star rating that is updated daily. A 5-star represents a belief that the stock is a good value at its current price; a 1-star stock isn't. If our base-case assumptions are true the market price will converge on our fair value estimate over time, generally within three years. Investments in securities are subject to market and other risks. Past performance of a security may or may not be sustained in future and is no indication of future performance. For detail information about the Morningstar Star Rating for Stocks, please visit here
Quantitative Fair Value Estimate represents Morningstar's estimate of the per share dollar amount that a company's equity is worth today. The Quantitative Fair Value Estimate is based on a statistical model derived from the Fair Value Estimate Morningstar's equity analysts assign to companies which includes a financial forecast of the company. The Quantitative Fair Value Estimate is calculated daily. It is a projection/opinion and not a statement of fact. Investments in securities are subject to market and other risks. Past performance of a security may or may not be sustained in future and is no indication of future performance. For detail information about the Quantiative Fair Value Estimate, please visit here
The Morningstar Medalist Rating is the summary expression of Morningstar's forward-looking analysis of investment strategies as offered via specific vehicles using a rating scale of Gold, Silver, Bronze, Neutral, and Negative. The Medalist Ratings indicate which investments Morningstar believes are likely to outperform a relevant index or peer group average on a risk-adjusted basis over time. Investment products are evaluated on three key pillars (People, Parent, and Process) which, when coupled with a fee assessment, forms the basis for Morningstar's conviction in those products' investment merits and determines the Medalist Rating they're assigned. Pillar ratings take the form of Low, Below Average, Average, Above Average, and High. Pillars may be evaluated via an analyst's qualitative assessment (either directly to a vehicle the analyst covers or indirectly when the pillar ratings of a covered vehicle are mapped to a related uncovered vehicle) or using algorithmic techniques. Vehicles are sorted by their expected performance into rating groups defined by their Morningstar Category and their active or passive status. When analysts directly cover a vehicle, they assign the three pillar ratings based on their qualitative assessment, subject to the oversight of the Analyst Rating Committee, and monitor and reevaluate them at least every 14 months. When the vehicles are covered either indirectly by analysts or by algorithm, the ratings are assigned monthly. For more detailed information about these ratings, including their methodology, please go to here
The Morningstar Medalist Ratings are not statements of fact, nor are they credit or risk ratings. The Morningstar Medalist Rating (i) should not be used as the sole basis in evaluating an investment product, (ii) involves unknown risks and uncertainties which may cause expectations not to occur or to differ significantly from what was expected, (iii) are not guaranteed to be based on complete or accurate assumptions or models when determined algorithmically, (iv) involve the risk that the return target will not be met due to such things as unforeseen changes in changes in management, technology, economic development, interest rate development, operating and/or material costs, competitive pressure, supervisory law, exchange rate, tax rates, exchange rate changes, and/or changes in political and social conditions, and (v) should not be considered an offer or solicitation to buy or sell the investment product. A change in the fundamental factors underlying the Morningstar Medalist Rating can mean that the rating is subsequently no longer accurate.

Pablo Picasso
Spanish, 1881-1973
A prolific and tireless innovator of art forms, Pablo Picasso impacted the course of 20th-century art with unparalleled magnitude. Inspired by African and Iberian art and developments in the world around him, Picasso contributed significantly to a number of artistic movements, notably Cubism, Surrealism, Neoclassicism, and Expressionism. Along with Georges Braque, Picasso is best known for pioneering Cubism in an attempt to reconcile three-dimensional space with the two-dimensional picture plane, once asking, "Are we to paint what's on the face, what's inside the face, or what's behind it?" Responding to the Spanish Civil War, he painted his most famous work, Guernica (1937), whose violent images of anguished figures rendered in grisaille made it a definitive work of anti-war art. "Painting is not made to decorate apartments," he said. "It's an offensive and defensive weapon against the enemy." Picasso's sizable oeuvre includes over 20,000 paintings, prints, drawings, sculptures, ceramics, theater sets, and costume designs.

Office Visits
Our practice is committed to providing you and your family with safe, gentle, high-quality dental care. We understand that you, or your child, may feel anxious about visiting the dentist. We are sensitive to your needs, and it is our goal to make you feel comfortable visiting our practice while providing the best care possible.
Your first visit is all about you – your comfort, your happiness, and your health.
During your first visit, we will review your dental and medical history forms, and take X-rays of your teeth and mouth. One of our hygienists will clean and polish your teeth, checking your teeth and gums for any cavities or early signs of tooth decay or gingivitis. Then, the doctor will meet with you to discuss your X-rays, help you create your own individual treatment plan, and answer any questions that you may have. If you require a more involved deeper cleaning your hygienist, and Dr. Kavanaugh will discuss this with you at your initial appointment.
Bring your smile, but also remember to bring these with you to your first appointment:
- Your completed patient information form
- Your insurance card
Regular checkups are an important part of maintaining a healthy smile!
The American Dental Association recommends visiting your dentist every six months for regular checkups and routine teeth cleanings to keep your teeth and gums healthy. If you are a periodontal patient those maintenance recalls will need to be set for shorter intervals to ensure success with your oral health care needs.
We understand that you have a busy schedule, so when you're preparing to visit the dentist, please remember that your appointments can last between 45 and 90 minutes.

In the wake of last Tuesday's elections, a lively debate has erupted into the open over whether conservatives and the Republican Party were well-served by their favorite media outlets.
Former Gov. Mitt Romney was reported to have been so certain of a victory on Tuesday night that he cast aside tradition and did not draft a concession speech. But conservatives now say his misplaced confidence — and theirs — were bolstered by the predictions of many like-minded pundits, which were broadcast and posted online around the clock by sympathetic news outlets.
"You had this kind of mutually reinforcing phenomenon going on between the Romney campaign [and] some influential commentators — and then a lot of that commentary gets repeated in the media at large," said Byron York, chief political correspondent for the conservative Washington Examiner.
York said that stunned Republicans at Romney's Boston headquarters told him they were influenced by the results of surveys conducted by the campaign's pollster, Neil Newhouse, and by what they heard on the air and saw in print.
Similarly, conservative columnist John Podhoretz of the New York Post had argued before the election that many pollsters were ignoring the high turnout by Republicans in the 2010 elections that swept the GOP into control of the U.S. House. The 2012 race would be the same, proving Obama's 2008 win to be an anomaly, Podhoretz argued — quite mistakenly, as he conceded afterward.
"Because I had a rooting interest in the other side, that view was strengthened and amplified by what I wanted to happen, which I freely confess," said Podhoretz, also the editor of the conservative Commentary magazine and a cultural critic for the conservative Weekly Standard. "People don't ordinarily cast a skeptical eye on data and information that supports their opinions. They're happy to take it."
The noted conservative political analyst Michael Barone and conservative columnist George Will were among those predicting a landslide in the electoral college for Romney. But they were far from alone. Viewers consumed a steady diet of such punditry on Fox News for weeks ahead of the election. Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich and ambidextrous political consultant Dick Morris (a consultant to a Democratic president, Bill Clinton, and a Republican Senate Majority Leader, Trent Lott) additionally promised landslides in the popular vote for Romney. Former chief George W. Bush strategist Karl Rove, who is now a top analyst for Fox and a top fundraiser for a political action committee that spent $300 million against President Obama and his fellow Democrats, predicted a comfortable but closer win for Romney.
Many conservatives argued the polls themselves were skewed — because they showed a Democratic edge nationally and a strong advantage in key battleground states. And indeed, Podhoretz and other conservatives contended that liberals and their sympathizers in the press corps clicked on Nate Silver's 538 blog in the New York Times hour after hour not because of their fascination with the mathematical probabilities but out of a desperate need for reassurance that President Obama would win re-election.
But in the days after Obama cruised to victory, former George W. Bush speechwriter David Frum accused right-of-center media outlets and partisan pundits of failing their audiences by cheerleading for the GOP rather than reflecting what was actually happening in the race or in the nation at large.
"The conservative followership has been fleeced, exploited and lied to by the conservative entertainment complex," Frum said on MSNBC's Morning Joe.
Pressed to name names, Frum demurred, though he has pointed to Fox News and Rush Limbaugh in the past. Frum argued the conservative media have failed their audiences by cheerleading rather reflecting what was actually happening in the race or in the nation at large.
"The activists are so mistaken about the nature of the problems the country faces," Frum said. "I went to Tea Party rallies, and I would ask this question: Have taxes gone up or down in the past four years? They could not answer that question correctly."
Host Joe Scarborough — a former Republican congressman — seconded Frum's critique and said he was reminded of what happened when the German army overtook France in 1940. "The French generals [were] reassuring [British Prime Minister Winston] Churchill day after day, week after week that the French were putting up a brave defense, when they knew the war was already lost."
On election night, Rove was in constant contact with Romney's people and proved so flustered by the results that he vigorously disputed the conclusion of Fox News' decision desk that Obama had won Ohio — and thereby won the election. A nonplused Megyn Kelly responded: "Is this just math that you do as a Republican to make yourself feel better, or is this real?"
The backlash has only strengthened in the days since the election. Younger political right-of-center operatives and pundits told Politico's Jonathan Martin that the reliance on clearly conservative media outlets and pundits — such as Newsmax, Rush Limbaugh's radio program, and the opinion shows on Fox News — had undermined their understanding of where the campaign stood.
"Unfortunately, for us Republicans who want to rebuild this party, the echo chamber [now] is louder and more difficult to overcome," former Kentucky Secretary of State Trey Grayson, who unsuccessfully ran against Rand Paul two years ago for the Republican nomination for Senate, told Martin.
Martin reported that Grayson's mentor, Kentucky Sen. Mitch McConnell, unsuccessfully pleaded with Fox News Chairman Roger Ailes to give his candidate as much time on the air as Paul, a firebrand conservative libertarian popular among Tea Party fans and many Fox viewers. Sorry, Ailes is said to have responded: Paul is better TV.
