Hillbuzz Censors Anybody who Disagrees With Them

It's true. Hillbuzz is about less lenient than Reuters. They always ask for comments (because his readership has gone way down) but if you disagree with him he censors you.

Yeah, that's a successful blog.

Hillbuzz Goofs on Penn State Coverage

The "conservative" blog Hillbuzz, created by gay Hillary supporters (not that there is anything wrong with that), has made a major faux paux in covering the Penn State scandal. In an open letter to the few blog followers allowed to comment on its webpage, it states that apparently the Penn State athletic department was "pimping out boys to wealthy alumni" because it was easier for them to "drive to College Station, PA then Thailand". This information is provided by a columnist who has followed the story (although he comments that this is just an assumption and he is fairly sure that no one in the administration really knew about the wrong doings - which is counter to everything you hear on TV today).

Besides this information being largely unsubstantiated the bigger problem is that there is not a "College Station, PA". Penn State is in "State College, PA". College Station is another college town outside of Bryan, Texas which is home to Texas A&M - and you know they wouldn't put up with this krap not one minute. However, HillBuzz thinks Penn State is in Texas - for some reason.

Hillbuzz owes a big apology to Aggies everywhere. Hillbuzz would also know about this error, but it heavily regulates who can comment on its website - we left several only to have them immediately removed. In fact, Hillbuzz has to be the most heavily censored website we have ever seen outside of Reuters. It's a shame. Why have a website if you are only going to listen to a few?
