Boing boing hypocrisy

[cdave]

I'm a bit late to this bit of internet drama, but I've not seen it on LJ yet, and it strikes me that some of you would be interested in it.

Boing boing caught deleting posts about someone they don't like anymore, and won't say why they don't.

Hypocrisy pure and simple.

That's true. And if you want to edit/delete your own past entries, I can't say I like it, but it's not Hypocrisy, and I wouldn't call it such.

They have built up reputation fighting against site who just this sort thing.

If, hypothetically, boing boing had caught a site like The Register deleting all their previous glowing reviews of Nokia phones after the CEO of Nokia pissed one of their journalists off, boing boing would have kicked up a hugh stink.

They have the right to do this, but it is hypocritical for them to do it.
