I put Middle Earth Journal in hiatus in May of 2008 and moved to Newshoggers.
I temporarily reopened Middle Earth Journal when Newshoggers shut it's doors but I was invited to Participate at The Moderate Voice so Middle Earth Journal is once again in hiatus.

Censored By Google

The Jawa Report has been censored by Google for "hate speech". They received the following e-mail:
Hi Rusty,

Upon recent review, we've found that your site contains hate speech, and we will no longer be including it in Google News. If you can guarantee that your news no longer includes hate speech, we will be happy to re-review the site for inclusion.

Regards,
The Google Team
It would be curious to see who else is on the Google censor list. I would certainly think that Michelle Malkin would qualify, nothing but 100% idiotic hate speech from her.
Needless to say, Rusty is not a happy camper.
I challenge Google News to find one instance of 'hate speech' on this site that is not either a case of sarcasm, humor, or a direct quote used in the context of a post that attempts to do just the opposite.

Unless, of course, Google News considers saying bad things about Jew hating anti-semites, fascists who would impose religious law, or those that cut off the heads of innocent civilians hate speech. Cause in my book, that's a good thing.
This is really scary stuff. You can let Google know you are not pleased. source-suggestions@google.com
