Misleading blogs

Convenient or intentional?

Published on July 24, 2005 By Moderateman In Blogging

What’s up with all the blogs here on Joe user that only give information that supports the argument put forth by the author?

One blog shouts Innocent man killed in England, telling the story, BUT leaving out one important FACT, that the man was ordered to stop by the police.

Disobeying a lawful order given by law enforcement after they identify themselves is a crime in and of itself.

No one questioned why the man jumped a turnstile and ran from the police after ORDERED to stop.

Another blog shouts Karl Rove ousted Plame, leaving out two important facts, one that plame was not undercover and two that Rove has not even been charged with a crime.

I know we all love putting our own perspective on things, but to leave out facts that support the opposing view is just plain bad writing and misleading.

We all get annoyed when we see one side or the other put “spin” on something, yet we do not hesitate spinning something ourselves.

I find this hypocritical to say the least.

I would just like to point out what all law enforcement and prosacuting lawyers KNOW.. eye witness account are the LEAST reliable of all forms of identafication.

the great thing about being down, is there is no where to go but UP.. ha!!!

That reminds me of one of the quotes from a Job review: The employee has reached bottom and started to dig.

MM, perhaps you mean 'Been Down So Long It Looks Like Up to Me' by Richard Farina?

my name is there twice or more...in reference to what??

Hi, Steve, u responded to SuperLiberals Need help blog about composer google was full of with ur own comment saying find it on google. SuperLiberal got people on his site + ur comment give him points, exactly what he wanted. Then, instead of saying thanks & googling, he tried to provoke another comment with a question to u (what does it say on google or so), he can respond to this blog by moderateman only because mm did not blacklist Liberal Crusader + SuperLiberal of his MM site, tomorrow, he changes names again, + can still hijack us to clicking on his site with blog titles we dont know are his till we give him points by clicking there, which is why he is still in the top 10 + we loose time, no offense against u, taking further measures meself. Blacklisting aint enough, only thing would be for a wizop to block his stardock account independent from his e-mail he could also change

Cant even prove my point now, he changed site name from Life from down here to Thoughts so now we dont recognize him in JU top 10 site list, If I mistook someone else for u Mano, sorry (was it forgery?), now 20-30percent of this thread are about suplib, baileys blacklistable NAME was removed by himself, bravo, that is ur way of still being there, hairsplitbaileys my suggestion for ur last site name today, I am trying not to be provoked into more commenting of my own on this thread, and if MM threads are full of suplib in the future, shame, but why would I go there intentionally even if I liked his style, u know what happens then. Und jetzt wünsche ich Dir auch eine recht angenehme Nachtruhe!

--What the heck...yeah I created the liberalcrusader persona because of a spur of the moment idea to just "fade into the crowd" and "leave" ,as it felt right at the time...wasn't very smart of me (seem to be on a streak

), as are some other 'idiotic antics' of mine, I'm not proud of them...but life must go on...and when have i "hijacked" threads...sure i have made comments off topic, who hasn't, you don't know anything about me...the real me...do you have a vendetta against me or what...just please leave me alone, as i have said many times, i am not intending to hijack,"drama queen", point hog,etc... period. end of story. Have a nice day.

--Mano, I apologize for not thanking you, i thought i did...guess not...so here it is: Thank you for your help, i just asked that question because i googling right, or something...(wasn't finding anything else than what i knew...) thank ya!

Lil whip also has a problem with supperlibido, this Moderate threads comment no 1 was by mano bringing up the topic on his own, now yall pretend I am crazy and the only one to be, could only get a chance to read things I like by blacklisting MM, Mano, lil whip and supposedlobby + smelling what titles are by these 4, that would make me loose the few friends a newbie has, already have enough enemies, not just Bailitoutcreamcocktail. This is so contagious it can only get better. Americans say yes to more than Hitlers idiots did these days, when I wake up tomorrow, maybe I will go back to some russian places where people concentrate on topics even though newbies and aliens are allowed to make spelling mistakes. Got some friends there too. They treat me better than sleeping dragon, tarkus, starkers mostly does, and 2 more I am not mentioning yet when I make a mistake or they think so. This threads off topic as often as I ever have been, whos the bad one, always me, and Jafo, Corky, THERE WAS A SITE ISSUE when I wrote about that weeks ago, even if I was in a hurry and did not adapt my blogs context from JU to WC, so keep on making newbies outsiders

Thanks. Sure u could of been thinking bout BLing me, if you were still into that. It is 6:20 am in Germany, getting up been thinking de whole night whom I could mention positively or thank so u dont think I am just a negative personal sidetrackin partycrasher, took a while but worked.

Moderateman just impressed me, Bash 2cools someone I admire, hes also got a "streak" right now, but in my system, 14year olds can have that every 1cen awhile, Z3FX also proved good character, den some people I havent dealt much personally but admire their work: MasonM, BakerStreet, Texaswhine or so, dharmagirl, + wanna thank Draginol Janitor T-Man, Frogboy for workin hard + there are more, so Ill shut up now + hope + wait for certain things to get better, & lady with the McDonald survey was friendly
