So the NOTW whistleblower has been found dead and police aren't treating it as suspicious......

What?

'What?' indeed! :blink:

The one man who has put himself forwards as a witness to events (rather than all the evidence so far coming from NI documentation), and who puts the PM's lacky Coulson squarely in the frame winds up dead on a 'big news day', and it's not suspicious. So 'not suspicious' that the TV news is heavily under-playing it.

Isn't it funny how witnesses to major govt wrong-doing are ending up dead? First David Kelly, and now this guy. You couldn't make it up.

I was under the impression that this site was moderated because the people (person?) who owns it and runs it wants it to be of a certain type as much as for legal reasons.

the primary reason is the legal one; if this site isn't attending to the legalities then it's ultimately in no position to be doing anything else.

As for the other part you mention, that definitely exists, on the basis that you can't please all of the people all of the time so why try doing so. By 'directing' things in a particular direction I hope to ensure that enough people find what others post both relevant and interesting enough that they want to revisit to read more &/or contribute to the discussions themselves.

The new 'journalists' are us... Twitter, Mumsnet, Facebook... etc. Although, I imagine there'll always be a place for real journalism with papers like The Guardian and Independent.
