It has been established that young Ms. Murray is the WebMASTER of this site. She is working diligently to do the job assigned her. I agree that postings that might subject her employer to a lawsuit for libel should be deleted. Further, I agree that a post that uses four letter words should be deleted. But what about Fair Comment About a Public Figure? Her employer has ordained to PROTECT Public Figures from ridicule. Therefore, why should ANYONE bother to read the Vanilla Pablum that has, thus far, been spread upon this website? Thinking Minds should like to ken. I say this to yins hooners: It appears the management has incorrectly targeted those over the age of 50 to peddle their product to. Most over the age of 50 just dont get the Internet and 21st Century communication. Management will LOSE!! As Warren Buffett said: I only have two eyeballs and 16 hours a day to use them. He also said: Even from my own reading habits, I see the effects of print newspaperslosing moreeyeballs with each passing year. My local paper continues to shrink in both size and coverage. For the first time in my life, I am considering canceling my subscription. So (Ms. Murrays bosses), go ahead and Delete Fair Comment on Public Figures from yer wee website. Dish up the Vanilla Pablum from yer reader toadies. See how many readers ya git to pay actual money fer yer tepid product. East Syracuse will pull the plug on yins before the New Year dawns.
