You have changed.

You are now pro religious piousness and even fundamentalism.

And now pro censorship.

And how it is censorship? Explain?

I submit that if a reporter works hard on a story, and management prints it with a title that best describes the content; it is patently unfair to see an interlocutor in a forum alter it with a title the owners of the piece would object to.

Not only that, what if the news source of that article sees the graffiti put there to replace their words and then sues and damages the Fair Use policy forum owners depend on to repost pieces?

Answer me that. Although honestly, I bet you have no concept at all what the Fair Use policy of reposting copyrighted material is anyway.

" The one thing I do know about political efficacy though; politics is an emotionally charged aspect of human culture, and expecting people to act perfectly is as foolish as expecting basketball to have only the level of contact the rules envision as there being in the game.

There is always going to be someone trying to stretch the envelope. "

Censorship is the suppression of speech or other communication which may be considered objectionable, harmful, sensitive, or inconvenient to the general body of people as determined by a government, media outlet, or other controlling body.

Hey you are right. You are not a controlling body!

"Censorship is the suppression of speech or other communication which may be considered objectionable, harmful, sensitive, or inconvenient to the general body of people as determined by a government, media outlet, or other controlling body."

In the book 1984 by George Orwell, the main character Winston Smith works at a job altering past news pieces to get rid of inconvenient facts the current government disagrees with. This is censorship.

What I am saying is, say a paper prints an article and entitles it(and I make this up to use as example), "Vaccine for the flu are good for your heart" to reflect a current result of a scientific study. The person reprinting it in forum XYZ hates vaccines, hates the government, thinks the scientists doing the work are a bunch of stupid faggots.

So he re-titles it:"Butt Pirate Government Stooges out to kill you with vaccines."

He or she succeeds in getting a spin on the piece before anyone else can post. He or she changes how people feel about clicking on the thread to read or comment on it. And even changes how the thread plays out.

How is this fair? If I were the reporter or editor who's product this is, I would be pissed. I would be angry because I used my time and resources to create content for my news conduit, and someone takes it and rewrites it.

As a poster seeing the altered piece in a thread, I would be reluctant to post on it, and would take care to note how the forum management reacts to these threads, and would discount the value of the forum if I felt that management can't see fit to respect the copy written product of a source of the articles used in threads.

One has to keep an eye on the larger picture of the fair use policy of reposting for comment and the rights of those producing the articles, as well as making sure their views on them are known in forum.

I merely state a level playing field and proper reposting policies are important to make a forum like this work. I in no way support censorship.
