I think Capitol Hill Blue should be banned from DU

[Walt Starr]

Unless it's used to poke fun at, sorta like posting Freeper links.

When it comes to CHB, never will you find a more wretched hive of paranoid tinfoilhat nuttery.

1. tom flocco needs to be banned too

I've seen way too many threads about Tom Flocco's outrageous reports. they're quite hilarious though.

4. Flocco is actually worse than Doug Thomson

Which is really saying something horrible about Flocco.

Outright bullshit. Best description I could think of.

2. Doesn't the guy who runs that place post on Free Republic?

I seem to remember something very vague and several years out of date regarding that.

Unless they banned him first of course. :)

6. I think he did during Zippergate

CHB was regularly quoted there because he spewed the same crap about Clinton during that time.

Here's a Freeper thread related:

CHB was the darling of Freakerland back then and many would try to make their bullshit reporting the arling of DU now.

All I want is the truth.

3. I disagree.

The free exchange of dissenting opinions, indeed, all information, is essential to the well-being of a free society.

5. but not necessarily to the well-being of a Democratic private site, eh?

7. I Also Disagree

It's just shitty journalism. An open forum is essential to critical thinking and we know about Fahrenheit 451.

Nothing to get worked up about. After awhile the savvy reader will know who is reliable.

There are also plenty of websites that are lame but link to excellent sources and excellent journalists.

Lot of flotsam and jetsam. The range of discussion is already restricted in the MSM.
Beware of becoming that which you purport to loathe.

Just ignore it or cut the articles with your own research.

8. Disagree

DU should be slow to ban, not too quick.

CHB has run some really interesting articles on the Chimperor's behavior, his tantrums, and the fears of those around him.

No, don't ban CHB.
