This blog is mainly about the spectacular train wreck at The Sacramento Bee and its parent company, the McClatchy Company. But I also post about current events, the Iraq and Afghanistan wars, politics, anything else that grabs my attention. Take a look around this blog, hope you enjoy it.

More change you'd better get used to
Anti-Obama comments at Jake Tapper's blog are getting deleted. To see one of the the offending quotes that was deleted, click here.
UPDATE 10/1: Tapper explains. It's not nefarious after all.
ABC did the same thing last year with their distorted story about Rush Limbaugh's E-Bay auction of the Senatorial smear letter of him.
As I documented on Don Surber's blog:
"ABC is arbitrarily deleting comments on their blog. Some of those comments are mine. Other posts of mine are being altered without my permission to make ABC look better. Other people are commenting that their posts are being deleted without warning, but those comments are being deleted almost immediately."
The resulting comment storm documenting the corruption and warning commenters led to mass deletions.
Confederate Yankee wrote at the time: "ABC is also censoring comments on the blog (mine, among others) for content that is anything other than profane, simply rewriting or deleting comments they do not like on apparent whims."
