Censorship at Blogger News
Blogger News is a small (few articles) and rather quiet (few hits and few comments) site where the average story seems to get about 400 hits. It started out as a libertarian/conservative site but has now dropped that claim, presumably with the intent of broadening its audience. It does a lot of book and TV reviews also with that intent in mind presumably.
I have been irregular contributor there since before the present management took over. I have put things up there that I would like to get to people who do not read any of my blogs. And some of my posts there have got over 1,000 hits.
They have however refused to put up one of my articles that I submitted to them recently so I doubt that I will send anything more to them. You can read the "censored" article here. There is no doubt that the article was on a generally "forbidden" topic but it is sad to see censorship encroaching where there was none before -- particularly since the article I submitted was solidly based on good scientific research.
They of course have every right not to put up my writings and I have every right to send them nothing more.
UPDATE
They now say that they withheld my article because it had typos in it!

well JJ said it - they don't have to accept anything and he doesn't have to send them anything - so what's the beef!
This is spoken from a man who censors his own blog. What a piece of work.

Now there's a problem for leftist Demoncrats. An attack on one of their most protected groups, by another of their most protected groups.
Solution? Just ignore it.

@2:10 If JR actually edits posts it is because of spam or abuse posts like those above that add nothing but trolling to the discussion.
