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","numcomment":2,"fileurl":"\/uploads\/","filesize":null,"article_url":"\/news\/2004\/03\/106413.php"},"attachments":[],"comments":[{"id":106416,"heading":"Maybe","article":"Maybe there's some merit to the accusations, but they sound paranoid to me.\r\n\r\nThis is a volunteer operation, and it's bad enough that we're so fixated on the election to the exclusion of other important issues, but to have to contend with interpersonal conflicts between individual antagonists who see fit to carry out their hostilities on news websites is just too much.\r\n\r\nThere are bigger fish to fry, computer boy.

That informationw as posted on the website of KOBE's target.\r\n\r\nHowever, that information was not posted by the victim of KOBE until three emails over a period of one week were sent to the alleged &quot;victim&quot; in Australia, asking her to deny the connection.\r\n\r\nThe alleged &quot;victim&quot; in Australia never responded until after the information was published.\r\n\r\nNo other contact or mention of the alleged victim ever took place.  When the alleged &quot;victim&quot; denied that the was connected to KOBE, the information connecting her to KOBE was removed.  Thus, there was no case of harassing her.\r\n\r\nNevertheless, more than a year later, we see these posts mimicing the job the KOBE: targeting the real victim - DeVoy.\r\n\r\nAlso, none of DeVoy's allegations have been disproved.","author":"In the know","parent_id":106413,"mime_type":"text\/plain","created":"2004-03-29 14:10:31","modified":"2004-03-29 14:10:31","fileurl":""}]}
