ABC News' Political Radar edits comments without notice
Posted Mon, Nov 19, 2007 at 6:22 pm
Earlier today I left a comment on this post (blogs.abcnews.com/politicalradar/2007/11/huckabees-first.html) from ABC News' Political Radar:
Previous coverage of comments being deleted, bannings, etc. begins in this entry about Kevin Tracy.
If I didn't know better, I'd say the ad was great. And, if I were promoting Huck for some reason, I'd say it was great too!If that doesn't sound like me or make much sense, it's because ABC News edited my comment without notice. Here's the version that I left; this is how it appeared on the site before the edit:
If I didn't know better, I'd say the ad was great. And, if I were promoting Huck for some reason, I'd say it was great too! Thankfully, I'm actually familiar with Huck's record:This isn't the first time they've done something like this, and it's not too difficult to imagine them getting into legal hot water should they edit comments in the wrong way.

Maybe ABC could decide to do some real reporting about his record. (Or, perhaps they're waiting until after they've built him up.)
