Okay, what's the deal here? Bizwire vs the First Amendment? My, they're really doing a GREAT job of making themselves look good, aren't they? Sorry, Cathy: satire and parody are protected speech, and you're making utter fools of yourselves. Are you really not satisfied with the bad press you've already earned?

cOUS, Sorry to hear that you were centsewered by the Business Wire/Silicon Investor administrator. Funny thing, I didn't realize until the events this evening that Business Wire actually controlled S.I. Shame on Business Wire for requesting the removal of your piece and shame on S.I. for complying. I hope S.I. reconsiders and restores your censored post tomorrow. etc.

That's insane. If they didn't want to get famous they shouldn't have made threats. And just who is running SI on the weekend, that would cave in to Batguano?

TLC and cOUSIN, I haven't followed the [reference deleted] story as closely as some...but the whole thing is absurd from my point of view. I hate to see the action that SI has taken and the consequences. Both the original April Fool's joke and cOUSIN SHORTY's satire have their hearts in the right place.

A true shame that SI knuckled under to the pressure of those dirtballs at Business Wire. The SI experience is truly diminished by this choice. Barb
