editor Posted July 31, 2008 Share Posted July 31, 2008 We've heard this a dozen times before. I'll believe it five years after everyone's cured. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BryanS Posted July 31, 2008 Share Posted July 31, 2008 (edited) ...this same story is referenced on a "board" on MSNBC.com... ...in the POLITICS section... (you'd think health section, but no) ...with the following title: "Houston doctors may have found a way to destroy HIV... Well there may be hope for all you Liberal fudge packers yet" ...and then comments: So they're gonna "eliminate" homosexuals? on msnbc. what a crying shame. EDIT: Here is the link: http://boards.msn.com/MSNBCboards/thread.a...threadid=738265 It is odd to see this kind of discussion on the MSNBC web site - in the same presentation format as their real news stories, the heading, etc...

It sounds like something posted by a user, and not by a member of the MSNBC staff. I'm not sure it's fair to hold the cable channel responsible for what a bunch of loonies do anymore than it's fair to hold me responsible for what some of the fringe HAIFers write. I've never been to MSNBC's message boards, but how many new messages do you think get posted there each day? A hundred? A thousand? Ten thousand? I doubt MSNBC has anyone to patrol its forum on a regular basis. And if it did, both fringes would be screaming "OMG!!! GUBMINT CENSORSHIP CONSPIRACY 9/11 BIG BROTHER COVERUP!!!1!!ELEVEN!!!" faster than you could open a new browser window. It's probably a free-for-all in there.

EDIT EDIT: I don't have any problem with the content of the message. Free speech is a wonderful thing. Just not sure you want that kind of free speech on what amounts to be company letterhead...
