Editorial Policy: The Open Publishing Newswire is an essential part of the Indymedia project. It is a globally accessible space for anyone to quickly self-publish breaking news, articles, commentary, digital photos, and audio. Los Angeles Indymedia volunteers moderate the newswire. In the last year and a half, the Los Angeles IMC Open Publishing Newswire has been besieged with detractive postings, other items, and commentary that are far away from what the Newswire is meant to be: a vital source of progressive and radical breaking news, commentary, articles, and announcements. There are no easy or perfect solutions to moderating an Open Publishing Newswire, rich with a healthy democracy of views. We have agreed by consensus on the following guidelines to help us decide what postings are appropriate and what are not. We believe that these guidelines will help to make the moderating process clearer for IMC volunteers and anyone who self-publishes; we hope to create an unencumbered, useful and Open Publishing Newswire for readers worldwide. We strongly recommend that you read our editorial policy

Important point however

"We especially encourage individuals to publish:" Investigative reports exposing injustice

OK an injustice!

extract:- "I've taken steps to prevent this, and hopefully it will all go away now. This person seems to think that I've been harassing him! If you know me, can you imagine that? I know I certainly can't. "

(blog of the person falsly identified in the article you hid)

http://the-onion.net/journal/archives/003180.php

Extract:- "And yet someone has decided that I am.

That I'm harassing him.

So now he's harassing me."

In case you readers had not realised this, that person whose blog was linked to was just ONE of the people targeted and harrased by a certain individual.

I exposed an INJUSTICE and it is hidden?
