NYT editor's blog: Snowden’s Questionable New Turn
http://www.democraticunderground.com/10023034825

REASON FOR ALERT:

This post is disruptive, hurtful, rude, insensitive, over-the-top, or otherwise inappropriate. (See <a href="http://www.democraticunderground.com/?com=aboutus#communitystandards" target="_blank">Community Standards</a>.)

ALERTER'S COMMENTS:

75th post about the same topic today. For the jury this is "otherwise inappropriate" because this paid shill has been spamming DU all day with this nonsense...

You served on a randomly-selected Jury of DU members which reviewed this post. The review was completed at Mon Jun 17, 2013, 05:07 PM, and the Jury voted 0-6 to LEAVE IT.

Pathetic.

No, they are merely making personal disparagements towards her in response to her posts. MADem Jun 2013 #56

I try not to. I prefer to argue with her head on but I refuse to argue with her blue links. Luminous Animal Jun 2013 #67

If you don't like her methods, there are ways to avoid them. Trying to control how she creates her MADem Jun 2013 #73

Backing up what you are saying is not linking to your own posts. Luminous Animal Jun 2013 #26

She links to her own posts... one_voice Jun 2013 #31

Easier translates to me as lazy. Easier translates to unwilling to engage the topic at hand Luminous Animal Jun 2013 #39

Why does it mean lazier? You click a link and everything... one_voice Jun 2013 #41

They don't like it because they have nothing in response. It's easy to spout all kinds of crap if stevenleser Jun 2013 #61

I get disparaged all the time by ProSense, and I find it calming, and like a shining light... Safetykitten Jun 2013 #74

Whatever floats your boat. I would feel uncomfortable if someone with facts and links disagreed with stevenleser Jun 2013 #76

The rule should be, if you are going to accuse someone of being a paid shill, back it up with proof. stevenleser Jun 2013 #75

I never presumed this person was a paid shill. Safetykitten Jun 2013 #86

Thank You! And to all of the "jurists" that have allowed the nastiest, most blatant personal attacks Number23 Jun 2013 #78

To be fair, sid rarely ever "participates" at all. morningfog Jun 2013 #102

True, he posts some "fail" type thing and laughs and laughs, he's so talented at that stuff... Safetykitten Jun 2013 #115

well played frylock Jun 2013 #134

So all these people hate him for absolutely no reason at all? Good to know. Says good things about Number23 Jun 2013 #145

I believe the opposite to be true. Juries love Pro. nm rhett o rick Jun 2013 #112

babylonsister, Pro only copy and paste, I have yet to see akbacchus_BC Jun 2013 #84

Big love for babylonsister and prosense! cheapdate Jun 2013 #98

Yup! I have to support this sentiment. longship Jun 2013 #99

They can't argue with ProSense, so they accuse her of being a "plant." Pathetic beyond description alcibiades_mystery Jun 2013 #100

So everyone that disagrees with this person lacks "civility?" I am having the vapors. Safetykitten Jun 2013 #107

Huh? alcibiades_mystery Jun 2013 #114

I never said this person was a paid plant or shill...where did I say this person was one? Safetykitten Jun 2013 #116
