MADem probably misread. Slightly touchy on this issue, I think.

Don't watch cable news so don't know how much Clinton is being mentioned, I do know that I haven't seen any mention of her on the national news in weeks if not months. Last time was Benghazi.

It's getting harder to post about current news... [View all] fadedrose Jan 2014 OP

She's more status quo. defacto7 Jan 2014 #1

I just noticed that Pretzel_Warrior (the post right under yours) won't be with us for a couple weeks Electric Monk Jan 2014 #30

That was an unfortunate hide. wtf Whisp Jan 2014 #32

Agreed. Raine1967 Jan 2014 #35

I agree with you Whisp! sheshe2 Jan 2014 #40

I also agree it's a bad hide. defacto7 Jan 2014 #42

I agree seattledo Jan 2014 #76

I think the name calling and mockery, which were the full content of that post Bluenorthwest Jan 2014 #85

Agreed. I'm no Hillary fan, but the fact that post was hidden is a fucking joke. Drunken Irishman Jan 2014 #116

Lots of burned bridges. If you act like a total ass, people remember. morningfog Jan 2014 #120

Which makes the whole system vindictive, silly, juvenile and pathetic... Drunken Irishman Jan 2014 #134

I have long had an issue with it. morningfog Jan 2014 #145

Agreed...and it's not just with spiteful people going after certain posters... Drunken Irishman Jan 2014 #146

It has nothing to do with who he is a fan of, I suspect. morningfog Jan 2014 #118

I have no recollection of that poster being a disruptor. Whisp Jan 2014 #121

He regularly engages in personal attacks, albeit usually worse than this one. morningfog Jan 2014 #125

I think each post should be judged on its own merit and Poster History shouldn't come Whisp Jan 2014 #128

You know it means they had 4 other hides correct? n-t Logical Jan 2014 #136

I also know the jury system sucks. Whisp Jan 2014 #137

Admins locked a lot more posts than jury's do did. Jury's let too much slide. n-t Logical Jan 2014 #139

I agree sad that that could be alerted on and actually hidden. Drew Richards Jan 2014 #124

LOL, really? It was rude for FFS he had 4 others. n-t Logical Jan 2014 #135

lol. Whisp Jan 2014 #138

Because I don't agree with you and you have no real argument so are sarcastic? n-t Logical Jan 2014 #140

You have OPTIONS. One option is to HIDE THREADS that don't interest you. MADem Jan 2014 #5

My understanding is that the OP is about news programs rather than the DU Fumesucker Jan 2014 #6

Concur, seems it's about talking heads. joshcryer Jan 2014 #8

I invite your attention to posts nine and twelve. MADem Jan 2014 #13

There is "some history with this individual"...WTF? KoKo Jan 2014 #21

Excuse the hell out of me. MADem Jan 2014 #38

No, this is about posting on DU, and not the first time this poster has made this gripe. MADem Jan 2014 #9

Again, pushing the remote button is evidently what the OP is doing Fumesucker Jan 2014 #11

This is an old saw. Believe me--I know how to read, and I've seen this shopworn theme before. MADem Jan 2014 #12

"You have options" BainsBane Jan 2014 #16

It's an appropriate comment to a META thread. You have options, too, you know. nt MADem Jan 2014 #18

I am going to start calling you Columbo. Good job. And, what's odd to me are the post Laura PourMeADrink Jan 2014 #17

the magistrate rules! madrchsod Jan 2014 #64

I haven't seen her about lately--I hope everything is OK. MADem Jan 2014 #68

Don't see much, if anything about WHY she doesn't like her which is curious. I agree Laura PourMeADrink Jan 2014 #88

No idea--but it's sustained. nt MADem Jan 2014 #91

MADem ....sorry this looks like "stalking" to me of this poster.... KoKo Jan 2014 #19

It's not 'stalking' when the same poster, day in, day out, year in, year out, since 2006, MADem Jan 2014 #33

Stop telling me what I "seem to be saying" when I am making it very clear what I AM,in fact, saying. MADem Jan 2014 #50

where in the rules do we all have to come from a neutral perspective? Whisp Jan 2014 #49

It doesn't suprise me in the least BainsBane Jan 2014 #47

Yes, of course, that's it, precisely. MADem Jan 2014 #37

To tell you the truth, I want to hear everyone's opinion defacto7 Jan 2014 #45

Fine--ignore the filtering then. You're one person, so you're speaking for yourself. nt. MADem Jan 2014 #48

Oh, I always speak for myself.... defacto7 Jan 2014 #51

The OP wasn't talking about the internet, s/he was talking about the news. And I agree. sabrina 1 Jan 2014 #56
