Digg Bans "FOX News Porn" - Sense of Humor Reported Dead at Scene
evilurl.com — It's official -- Digg's moderation team has the same tolerance for society's heathenism as Ann Coulter. Despite the well-known fact that their own audience madly revolts against any form of censorship, they continue to selectively enforce healthy family values on articles clearly labeled "NSFW". WTF?

- WaterMedia, on 11/16/2007, -0/+12***** Digg. This is just silly.
- Ltgeo, on 11/16/2007, -0/+11Agreed, ***** this. What sellouts. Stand against the Murdoch media empire.
- stephenpjc, on 11/16/2007, -0/+7A lot of crap showing up on the front page is already labeled as NSFW (and also actually being NSFW), and even makes it to daily top 10. WTH?
- punx777, on 11/16/2007, -0/+6It's on the front page now!
- Pulledteeth, on 11/16/2007, -0/+5Dear Digg,
It did not work for the United States. It will not work for you.
Signed,
Someone against Censorship
PS KTHXBAI - rpj101288, on 11/16/2007, -0/+5We've been through this before, Kevin, and you know that caving to media corporations isn't going to fly with us. This number look familiar?

Thought so. Keep it in mind. You might see a few more of these stories. - corevette, on 11/16/2007, -0/+4http://digg.com/linux_unix/HERE_WE_GO_AGAIN_DIGG_C ...
- otatop, on 11/16/2007, -0/+2What does this have to do with Linux? I'm all for exposing censorship or what have you, but play by the rules. Or if you're not going to, use a category that FPs with 5 diggs like Extreme Sports or Soccer.
- RobertS44, on 11/16/2007, -0/+3Start spamming guys. Kevin needs another lesson...

05/01/07 -- Never forget. - Haecceity, on 11/16/2007, -0/+4If Fox News is now considered to be porn by Digg then that's the ultimate affirmation of the original parody site. But seriously, the Digg administrators are being very foolish here.
- stilesja, on 11/16/2007, -0/+3Digg has jumped the shark. It used to be cool. Now it is just sold out. This isn't social news, its socialist news. Get over yourself KR, sell this ***** box site while theres still enough douche bags here to make it worth something.
- JonForTheWin, on 11/17/2007, -0/+1Just look at Kevin's face, he LOOKS like the kind of guy who would sell Digg to Ruppert Murdoch's Newscorp.
Digg protecting Fox just makes the rumors that Digg wants to sellout to murdoch appear even more likely true.
