Can't have been the same dh though, as this one here is dead against us posting up "main media authenticated lies". :-)
In the end someone posted up another 1-line "article", along with another Guardian link:
http://www.indymedia.org.uk/en/2003/12/282367.html
...but the comment that followed was way too interesting and informative to lose, so it stayed unhidden.
The only way to break out of the "perpetual ring of main media authenticated lies for ever and a day" is for all of us to stop relying on other people to do our journalism for us.

Full marks to the author
I'm not denying the establishment media throws out the occasional gem which militates against or undermines the general Reuters -UPI- Murdoch- CNN etc mediated crap
My point is that what Indy demands as 'proof' so that articles and assertions are not deemed 'infactual' is only generally available from the controlled media, or other establishment funded sources like the Royal Society.
Reading between lines, observations, following a different logic, can be so easily pounced on - the difference being that lone individuals haven't got the resources that are controlled by the new world order
So we can only poke holes, or grab the occasional revelatory truth that slips out
Cheryl Seal, who seems to have been treated quite sympathetcally elsewhere, though in truth is only another cut and paste, is a case in point

Oh yeah - I missed the point

Time to learn a little more discernment, I'd have thought

If you want to query why something was hidden, you should mail the uk features list, not just keep re-posting. You can get stuff unhidden by talking to us, if we've made a mistake.
It was me however, who fixed the HTML formatting on Cheryl Seal's post yesterday, if that's what you're referring to. I wasn't aware that she was copy-and-pasting there though: thanks for the heads-up. I will check more carefully in future.
cheers,

I can't be arsed to bother with such half baked nonsence, it seems any criticism of a paranoid conspiracy theorist's theory will invite accusations of being an MI5 inflitraitor and other BS.

My point about Cheryl Seal's article was not that Cheryl does cut and paste jobs herself - she is a most careful and original commentator, just that somebody's probably copied in her article and signed in her name.
Then again I could be wrong - as I probably was about the lead article
Apologies
