Speaker by Various Artists

Thanks for that link Dan, a telling picture painted there. That comment section is far more transparent than anything I've seen on New Zealand providers. Re: Stuff, When censored while following the posting guidelines to a T, any objective integrity publishers claim to possess is negated. It is of extraordinary concern that the stakeholders are legally able to misrepresent their readership and the general public in this way.

Obviously this is stated clearly:

We retain the right and discretion (but not the obligation) to edit, delete, reject or remove any comment which you post or seek to post in the comments areas.

You grant us a non-exclusive, royalty-free, perpetual, worldwide licence to republish any material you submit to us, without limitation, in any format.

Certainly a democracy is critical to a free press...
