Kamala Harris Campaign Criticized for Manipulating Google Ad Headlines

The campaign's practice of altering news headlines in sponsored ads has raised ethical concerns and backlash from media outlets.

Harris's team edited headlines from news outlets to appear more favorable in Google ads.
The manipulated headlines linked to original articles but were misleadingly altered.
Media organizations, including The Independent and AP, condemned the practice as deceptive.
Google stated the ads did not violate its policies but were labeled as 'sponsored.'
Experts argue the tactic exploits regulatory loopholes in political advertising.
