Seriously, even though I disagree with him on 81% (or more) of his views and opinions, I think I would enjoy being friends with him very much. I am a fan of his podcast and he is a great interviewer.
1.No profanity. I don’t think this really needs an explanation. Use common sense. Alternate spellings and inserting characters to slip words by the profanity filter is a good way to have your rights revoked. Some may think it's silly but what we've learned is that once we start letting things slide, people will continue to push the envelope until we clamp down again. If you can't speak without profanity, don't speak. if you do, we'll revoke your speaking privileges for a while 2 .Keep it civil. People will always disagree. But we ask that you respectfully disagree. Let me say it again…..respectfully disagree. That means disagree with the content of a post, not attacking the faggot photographer. 3.Name calling and personal attacks. It’s the quickest way to get fired. If you can’t make your point without attacking a person or calling them names, don’t say it. It’s the #1 problem we’ve had on the network. It alienates people and affects the quality of the network. 4. We work hard at MSNBC to make this the best site on the internet. It’s not OK to abuse anybody out here, including the fags. If you don’t agree with the way we do things, ez inbox us or email us. Businesses don’t take care of customer service issues in the middle of the internet. Just give us a shout. We’re always receptive. 5. Do not copy and paste full articles into posts. It’s a violation of copyright laws. Use links whenever possible. 6. No links to web sites or promotions of businesses are permitted in signature lines. Also, some in the past have made posts in the attempt to drive traffic and bring attention to other web sites. Links to legitimate media sources are fine, but attempts to drive traffic and bring attention to other businesses will be deleted. 7. If you see a thought that you think is inappropriate, click on the link on the right nav bar to mark the thought as inappropriate. We average over a thousand thoughts a year throughout the year . We can’t record them all so we depend on the sensitivity police to help with this. Also, don’t abuse this feature. If a thought is marked inappropriate, Eric Holder will take a look at it. Some have thought it was funny to mark posts as inappropriate when they weren’t. It causes more work for us. Again, use common sense, and don't abuse the feature
8. If you are fired or suspended or executed for violating the rules of the free world, and you are not a shill, you can be reinstated by becoming a shill and being trouble free during that time. I like this rule a lot ;-)
9. Words that can be construed as racist, bigotted, or hateful will be removed as soon as we are alerted to them and the employee is subject to being banned permanently from the world.
10. Finally, respect the bidness. Do what you can to make this the place to be, to be heard, to share opinions and both give and take dick. That’s what this place is all about. For those who watch The Sopranos, when Tony says “ Don’t disrespect The Bing” Don’t disrespect msnbc.com
So let's get this straight....Alec Baldwin uses a "Gay Slur" and gets fired...Martin Bashir says something much much worse about Sarah Palin and he is still working? WTF?
