Colorado Missing Link
Feb. 5th, 2005 09:41 amSoon after I finished editing a profile of the University of Colorado the Ward Churchill affair broke, and my boss asked me to stay on top of it. I fond it useful to refer to the original essay, one sentence of which, quoted in the Hamilton College student paper and aired nationwide by Mr. O'Reilly, started the whole thing.
I am not a terrorist by any reasonable definition of the term. I am a philosopher with a degree in higher education, who does part-time work for a nonprofit generally considered right of center. I keep my links on del.icio.us, but not this one; it doesn't take. I evidently can't be trusted with this information, even when I uncovered it in the first place, and I suppose nobody else can either.
I wonder if I need to go looking for another free web-based link server. Has anyone here encountered this kind of censorship? Or is there some obscure technical reason, unconnected with ideology, why I couldn't save this one link? In any case the link is now embedded here, and I assume I can link to this post.
Later: I tried again, and there it was, right where it would be if I had saved it yesterday; probably I somehow missed it when I looked earlier today. As for Thursday, I probably didn't save it when I thought I had, or, to be more exact, hoped I had.
Apologies to anyone I might have misled.
