Announce protest actions, general chit chat or give your opinion on issues we haven’t covered for the day.
Moderation rules are more lenient for this section, but try and play nicely.
Hey everyone, thank you for contacting us with the problems you are having at the moment with posting comments.
While you may be told your message has been trashed or disallowed or denied, they are in fact all remaining on site.
So please be patient and your comments will turn up.
We are working on the problem and will have a solution soon.
PS -While we are having this discussion about comments, we have always felt moderated comments were a way to go to avoid trolling. The Internet can be a pretty rude place at times so we wanted to try and reduce that.
How would everyone feel about
a) Direct posts to blogs.
b) Moderation after publishing (if we went down this path we would need volunteer moderators).
c) We are going to start clamping down more on personal abuse between commentators and would like to open up thoughts form you the readers about what you would like to see in terms of comments and what the rules should be.
Please leave comments below. Thoughts on what we will do will be published middle of next month.
Cheers TDB Team

‘Episode 798’
http://www.rt.com/shows/keiser-report/312709-%D1%81hicago-poor-communities-bankrupt/
“In this special episode of the Keiser Report from Chicago, Max Keiser and Stacy Herbert discuss the very un-Norman Rockwell-like shakedowns of poor communities across America resulting in the increasing confrontations between the police sent to collect for local bankrupt communities and the poor suckers who are plundered. In the second half, Max continues his conversation with Mike “Mish” Shedlock, of globaleconomicanalysis.blogspot.com, about Chicago’s junk debt situation.”
FJK being investigated by Ombudsman’s office over Ponytailgate, re his communications with then NZH gossip columnist Rachel Glucina!
Be interesting if this brings anything to fruition, or if the Ombudsman will be “instructed” on what decision to come to!

I highly recommend this article for anyone interested in Donald Trump, Fox News and American politics. It answers the question of why Fox News turned on Trump in the first Republican debate.

@ Mary A – Probed, but not very hard I’d say.
