[Imc-aotearoa-ed] DISCUSS "Jealous wife ran over..."

[clare h]

Hi,

i agree it is off topic, i also suggest it exceeds the bounds of 'far use' 
and it is probably copyrighted - it has the AP at the bottom. is that 
associated press?

indymedia is not a site for reposted corporate media .

i agree the post should be hidden

finn says we should for now put comments at the bottom of such posts saying 
'please do not post corporate media. in the future we will be hiding/removing 
them"
and in a week or so start inforcing 

clare
