The LA Times posted an "article" entitled
Google won't exclude distorted Michelle Obama image from search and there were maybe ten or fifteen comments, mostly asking why this was news and what's wrong with free speech. Then I posted the following comment and in the time it takes to read said comment, all the comments were gone, as if the LA Times had never allowed comments on the article. So, did the following touch a raw nerve? Or was it too close to the truth? You be the judge. Could've been a technical glitch, but the timing's incredible, and the last time I checked, the comments had not been restored.
My comment:
Gee, LA Times, did you want everyone in the world to view the image? That's all you've accomplished here, in addition to revealing your pseudo-elitism by thinking you're big and bad enough to tell Google where it ought to stand on free speech. So, does this mean you're against free speech? Or is speech only free when it criticizes those you hate versus criticizing those to whom you would surrender your rights as well as the rights of all American citizens.
You people are moronic. Perhaps if you spent as much time studying the Constitution as you do looking for flaws in others, you'd get an idea of why newspapers are losing readership, yours included. God knows few working at your paper have actually studied journalism.
Get off your high horse and do some real reporting for a change. Start looking at the bigger picture, the one beyond Obama. You'll be amazed at what you find. Hell, why not Google George Soros and the Bilderberg Group for starters? See how much practice Soros has at collapsing a country's currency, then ask yourselves if Bernanke of the Federal Reserve has quit printing dollars yet? Then ask yourself why he hasn't? Why not ask why he attended the Bilderberg Group's annual meeting in 2008? Or why Tim Geithner's a regular guest? George Soros last attended in 2002 I believe, but don't ever doubt that he's not well-represented.
Maybe if you dug a little, you could report truth instead of opinion and increase your readership. Unless, of course, you want to be bailed out by Soros and Co. using taxpayer's money--until the dollar's worth less than toilet paper, I might add. You better hurry and do something because you're going to be in the same boat as all the rest of us if you don't. Then you'll wish you'd done some real reporting. Oh well, I'm sure there will be a public works job for you all somewhere. And to think you could've stopped what's coming down merely by seeking and reporting the truth.
I used to believe in newspapers and reporters. Until they sold their souls to make a puppet a king.
