"Your Comment is Awaiting Moderation"

After posting this, I posted this in Fox News site comments:



Note the number and the time.

This is where it's currently at:



And it's not because I left a link: first of all, it's their system that makes it active, plus others have left links in their posts (for instance, see Comment #18). And I didn't violate any standards by using bad words, insults...

I think it's safe to say they don't care for what I'm proposing. It's not in their interests.

Think about that for a moment, and ask yourself if this seems like the actions of honest and ethical journalists whose interests are to bring unbiased information to the electorate, you know, as in "We report, you decide."

UPDATE: It's finally made it--looks like my comment poster Bob in Sea Tac was right, and it was a matter of them being overwhelmed.

  1. Don't worry, your post will probably show up a minute or two before the debate.

    By the way, have you tried posting without the link?

  5. According to my thoroughly unscientific poll, the ratio of "honest and ethical journalists" to "honest and ethical used car salesmen" is approximately 1:1.

  6. David,

    Your comment finally made it as #1363. It is in time order, still at 10:37 am. I guess they were just OVERWHELMED with entries, not really putting you off.
