[Seattle-editorial] newswire attack

[jonathan lawson]

Hey editorial folks,

As others have mentioned recenrly, our newswire appears to be suffering an 
attack from one or more posters who mostly repost right-wing hate articles 
against the anti-war movement or pro-Israel posts. Could be connected to 
the recent rise of nazi/racist presence at anti-war rallies? Anyway, let's 
open a discussion about how to deal with it. If the volume appears to be 
high enough, we could decide, for example, that the posts constitute a 
malicious attempt to denigrate the usefulness of the newswire as a source 
of news-thus a violation of ed. policy principle 4. That's how we dealt 
w/Bobby Israel and w/J.C..
