Is the Huffington Post just a blog, do they like to censor or what's wrong with them?
Editor's Note: The Huffington Post's editorial policy, laid out in our blogger guidelines, prohibits the promotion and promulgation of conspiracy theories -- including those about 9/11. As such, we have removed this post.

1. Is there any blog that doesn't censor?
if so, would it be readable?

3. Do they have editors? They call themselves a newspaper so I doubt

you can submit anything and it gets published to be taken off after some time.

Does anybody know how it works. Max Keiser writes for them and is also a DUer I believe.
Maybe someone can enlighten me on this process.

Why is the article about the CIA dealing drugs not taken down?

2. The problem is the conspiracy of 9/11 is not a theory.
Edited on Fri Mar-12-10 07:06 AM by RC
It did not happen the way the government and the media presented it.

If there wasn't something to the 9/11 conspiracy theories, then why all the convoluted stories trying to make the physics fit the explanations.

I expect this thread to end up in the dungeon too.

4. The conspiracy stories are far more convoluted than making the physics fit the explanations.
And yes, the conspiracy stories are indeed theories. No one has yet proved them.

And a discussion of this really doesn't belong here, no.

5. I didn't bring up 9/11. The OP did.

6. Please help with this HuffingtonPost research survey
http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/PXF9RJK

We are students at UC Berkeley and we are conducting market research on the HuffingtonPost. The research data will come from two sets of surveys, the first set is a short list of open-ended questions. The second set will include a list of multiple choice questions.

Research results will be presented to the management team at HuffPost. Your input is very valuable, thank you for participating.
