Censorship is when content and viewpoints are not allowed to be posted.
Choosing to not spread their trash even further is not censorship, it is a rational response to their poor content. Posting their stories is supporting them. They get more clicks when their stories are posted here. Fact.
The ST will still exist and still post their trash. We aren't censoring them. We just would no longer be spreading their messages even further

- Yes you can.
- Been that way for quite a long time.
- Prefer to think of as unwilling more so than unable but you are probably correct. Stupidity or laziness...not a good choice among them.
- Has been admitted to by one of their so-called writers.

My first thought as well.

In my very crude and limited perspective this piece neither qualifies as news or information.
Exactly what in it would qualify as news?
What it appears to me is just another attempt to generate ad revenue, but stirring up [ Finebaum ] by linking to two guys talking who really have nothing in their background that makes them an expert other than they were designated so by the headline writer in the attempt to generate traffic.
There is a distinct difference between censorship and discretion and while too much of either can be stifling a lack of each is equally as damaging to the public good.

The circle remains unbroken. Butthole begat Muck who begat Peter who begat crap. In other words Peter = Muck's Posterior.

Careful, people will think you are in favor of that seditious 1st Amendment.

Because it’s no longer news or information.

99% of the dipshits calling for censorship are 'conservatives' who just can't handle getting their feelings hurt. In other words, snowflakes.
We are a disappointing team. Grow a pair and deal with it.

I don't need to click this link to know that I am more disappointed with TCU than any other team. But, then, I don't give a poo about all the others.

But it is what is being written about our Frogs, whether on a national level or, in this case, the hometown newspaper. So it is information for us as fans, and for the school and team.

It is not censorship when a private citizen or entity chooses not to read or promote a “news” organization that is a) worthless and b) hostile to an institution we all love. The starlegram is free to spew their garbage. I am free not to partake. KFC is free to prohibit links on their site. No ones 1st amendment rights is being infringed on.
Freedom of speech is not freedom from consequences. Tswizzle is free to espouse a political hot take and I’m free to not buy her music (for my daughter...really).

this is such tired [ Finebaum ]
censorship is making an attempt to stop people from saying something
discretion is recognizing this is not about news, information, or even putting forth a well thought out opinion, but as mac himself said generating ad traffic.

Tipper Gore called and said you're welcome for the age restrictions and censorship labels on music.

I was in high school when those labels came out. I felt that they helped identify the good music (atleast to an angry young 17 year old)
