Tilted Forum Project Discussion Community - View Single Post - Why hate? **analog Mod Note, everyone read this.**

To clarify, sorry if I made it seem you were claiming mod bias, I was using it as an example because it was simple brought up here and it was the latest action taken in Tilted Politics that was questioned by someone - not necessarily you.

Questioning the integrity of CBS and Dan Rather is entirely fair game - what we're concerned with as mods is attacks on TFP members. We may disagree on whether or not he sought discussion, and that's fine. But his thread was clearly made on the assumption that the documents are fake - and there are may people who do believe this - and he asks at the end of his post why we think CBS would go public with documents that aren't 100% certain to be legit. A valid question, even if they're not 100% fake yet either.

Anyway, the specific point isn't really important, I was just trying to get across that we DO think about these things before we remove/close threads and it has nothing to do with our own "agendas." The points analog made are much more important to be discussed.
