The following post has me officaly banned from nj.com forum:
Can anyone tell me why?
Posts that support Rockaway residents whom are opposed to CC moving here are consistently removed, no matter how appropriate. Todd and his multiple personalities are allowed free rein to spew their anger. Is this, or is this not a forum for Rockaway Township??? I am sure this will be deleted ASAP. So much for free speach and unbiased media in America...
... Key words: "IN ITS SOLE DISCRETION" ... and it is my own personal (neutral) thinking that this is what would be considered as the rationale to remove anything/anytime etc etc.
There needs be NO other specific, or otherwise, reason in the decision TO delete a post ... Also I don't believe they are under any obligation to provide anyone with a rationale or explanation as to what criteria they use/used in deleting any given postings .... (of course it would be nice if they did - but to my knowledge they don't HAVE to). Of course it's frustrating when something that appears to be unfair and biased happens ... I think they'd just say something like "we're under no obligation to tell you why we do what we do .. and you're under no obligation to patronize our site."
I guess it's akin to aclu.org's web site that says "It is not without rules and regulations or supervision ... If you find that disturbing, you may want to find a more regulated environment."
The excerpt did not post in my original message, sorry about that !!! ....
This is what I found in their HELP Centre --
...This site reserves the right, but undertakes no duty, to review, edit, move, or delete any material in its Forums, in its sole discretion, without notice....
Does this Betz clown have a boss that can be made aware of the bias that is taking place? I don't really have the time these days to follow up on this, but maybe one of you out there can. The censorship of anti-CC posts and proliferation of Pro-CC posts by ToddDavid and his many fake aliases puts NJ.com, it’s subsidiaries and parent company in a position that I am sure it's executives would not agree with. Let’s expose this moron and get him fired!
