LOL biased Wikipedia is asking for your MONEY

Posted on 11/18/2010 7:42:21 PM PST by PRePublic

I visited wikipedia (my bad) for two items (I learned to sip and to be SELECTIVE in the "info" that libs. and PaidIslamoActivists insert there) I got this popup.

Great example of Wikipedia bias - before Chucky Johnston of liberal green footballs had his nervous breakdown, his wikipedia page was all hate-filled, about how he was some kind of extreme radical.

Then when he had his breakdown & starting being a liberal democrat, now his page is Sooo nice.

I was saddened by C. Johnson’s change.

When we're finally shedding the biased media in print and on networks, why would anyone in their right mind start paying to keep the same and worse bias alive?

You allow popups??

But to the matter at hand. I read something on Wikipedia three times this week.

Way I see it, Wikipedia owes me three dollars.

"Below is a growing list of examples of liberal bias, deceit, frivolous gossip, and blatant errors on Wikipedia. The atheist Jimmy Wales was a lead founder of Wikipedia. Please feel free to contact the atheist Jimmy Wales about any biases you find at Wikipedia."

LOL

Interesting enough it poppedup even with my ‘medium’ level security on.

I contacted J. Wales in... 2006, nothing has changed, in fact it got worse. Most administrators are biased - have a power to block whom THEY wish to, so much for “free encyclopedia” myth.
