English PersonThere are several threads at the Google Web Search Help forum with complaints about an offensive search result.

If you search Google for [define an english person] Google returns the Wikipedia result for the term "Cunt".

Some people are saying they find it funny but others are truly offended by it.

Here is a picture of the search result:

Google Defines An English Person A Cunt

Googler, Albert, said:

Just saw a report regarding this. This looks like a bad case of ranking that we're looking into.

Every now and then these types of search results come up. The big questions is why did this happen in this case and can Google fix it or will Google have to leave it like they did with the Michelle Obama Image case.
