Ed, Why Were Ttt's Replies Deleted............

[10ClarionSt]

..........on the Sinead O'Connor thread last night? He only pointed out a few truths about her. This stinks of "Faragism" to me. AB isn't going down that route is it, Ed?

[murraymints]

ooo what did he say ???

[naomi24]

Clarion, I think there's more than one thread about this so it would hep to post a link to the one you're referring to.

[royfromaus]

Didn't see them but I detest factual answers being removed, no matter how unpalatable they are for some.

[barry1010]

I didn't see them either so have no idea whether they were factional, fictional or opinion

[barry1010]

Factional? I meant factual

[lady-janine]

Oh dear I've missed something else. No freedom of the press here. Would Sinead have deleted them? Maybe a tirade from her but would she have left them for all to see?

[youngmafbog]

The Left thinks that it alone owns the moral high ground and that mainstream views are wrong and obnoxious, even dangerous.

It is Orwellian totalitarian and yes there are those Metropolitan 'elites' amongst the mods on here I am afraid. (Not all by any means).

[10ClarionSt]

This one. But the deletions you see were from TTT, so unless you actually saw them it wouldn't mean much.

Clarion, the Ed will know where to look now.

[royfromaus]

Too many mods...one of them was bound to get upset.

[andy-hughes]

The Ed is not going to get into a debate about any deletions, either done at AB Towers, or by Moderators, it's a recipe for Groundhog Day.

[andy-hughes]

Roy - How many Mods is 'too many', since you don't know how many there are?

[ToraToraTora]

I just pointed out her links with terrorism, it seems the mod that removed them didn't like that. So much for impartial moderating.

[naomi24]

//Roy - How many Mods is 'too many', since you don't know how many there are? //

We all know how many Mods there are. It's in the Ed's thread on moderators in Editor's Blog.

Rather than making a meal of it here, best wait for the Ed have a look at the thread and decide whether the removals were justified.

[ichkeria]

One was that she supported the IRA and he appeared to celebrate her passing as there was “one less”
The other that she sang out of tune.

Less they be mythologised as “truths”
Others can judge in particular the second one (!)

[ichkeria]

Personally I’d have met them be.

Everyone is now making a whole fuss about it

[Raving-Mod]

I don't know what had been posted but it might not have been the "few truths" themselves but the manner in which they were expressed and ToraToraTora is more than capable of contacting the Spare Ed if he wants to.

If the actions were wrong the posts will be "de-deleted".

[ichkeria]

“Let them be”

As I said at the time controversy followed her in life why not in death

[Gromit]

// O'Connor was a vocal supporter of a united Ireland, and called on the left-wing republican Sinn Féin party to be "braver". In December 2014 it was reported O'Connor had joined Sinn Féin. O'Connor called for the "demolition" of the Republic of Ireland and its replacement with a new, united country. She also called for key Sinn Féin politicians like Gerry Adams to step down because "they remind people of violence", referring to the Troubles. //

The question has been asked and it is now up to the Spare Ed to consider so rather than discussing the rights a wrongs of the deletions any further I am closing this thread.
