Apparently the journalist here did not interview anyone from Yahoo! or
Google before publishing this article:
http://www.msnbc.com/news/611171.asp?cp1=1
"A STUDY IN Thursdays New England Journal of Medicine found that
popular Internet search engines tend to direct users to sites that
appear to promote drug use and provide incorrect and even dangerous
information."
The NEJM article itself is not available online.
