Sykes put up a post yesterday about State Senator Olsen and an apparent conflict of interest the Senator has regarding a bill dealing with ethanol. In this post, he included an email from Senator Olsen's chief of staff, Heather Smith, that included the phrase "chink in Luther's armor."
Now, being a king, such as I am, and knowing something about armor, that expression is acceptable.
However, it is not acceptable to MSJ's filtering programs. The program apparently picked it up as a derogatory term towards certain Asians, and blocked it out.
The right have worked themselves in a tizzy about "political correctness run amok" and other similar rants.
They do miss the obvious question: Why would MSJ need a filter to block out ethnic slurs? Is it the staff, or the commenters, or both?
Uh, capper, TMJ doesn't have a filter. The JS does... Do you actually think through your points before you post?
ReplyDeleteTMJ, MJS, JSOnline, they're all part of the same company, but I'll change it you big baby.
