WTF?? That is not right, nor legal.....all news has to be blocked if they want to block one network.

They didn’t want the sailors to see LTC Lakin’s case discussed on BOR with Megan Kelly last night. It could be contagious???

Then it’s a local thing where I am. Probably just a regional glitch. It’s still blocked here.

Well, that’s good news. The court marshal of the colonel is Bullsh$t......the colonel has a legit complaint/question and I hope Zeewoe is forced to produce his long form BC because of it, but, I doubt that will happen.

Which is why the case will be dropped - so BO will NOT be forced to show his BC.

Here's a question; are the sailors really missing anything???

FOX and their paid(?) guests and commentaries have blocked any attempt to get to the bottom of their usurper's in the White House illegal status, hmmm!!!

The algorithm probably tripped on some sort of word today that flipped it to banned. Most of this stuff is simply general parsers that make mistakes. Typically, the systems will err on the side of caution if anything hits a red flag. They can also use counters. Hence, it may work 1 day but the next day it didn’t because the count level was higher.

The Community-Organizer-in-Chief has spoken. He’s worthless for guiding our forces in war, but he knows how to eviscerate that inconvenient First Amendment to the Constitution of the United States of America.

just like their TV screen is cluttered with graphics.

Doesn't that drive you nuts? I love it when an anchor instructs us to look at something on the screen, they cut to an onscreen shot, and we can't see what they're talking about because there are so many garbage graphics cluttering the screen. I have this fantasy that I become owner of Fox News . . . and my first action is to ban all but temporary graphics (such as names) from the screen.

My second action would be to fire Shep Smith.

Remember Obama questioned why or how military received fox news I think before he got into office? Obama is behind this.

Reading the “oh, we fixed it but don’t know what was broken” article, it sounds more like Hussein was doing a practice run.
