But I'm glad that we (both) made the effort to work things out. She's extremely principled - beyond what most people even understand that word to mean - and not afraid to take a controversial stand and defend it. Even in those times where we disagree (which, it turns out, is a lot less than we thought) I can certainly respect the fact that she really does "walk the walk."Niceguy Eddiehttp://eddiecabot.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7342454496014200176.post-67585846965090203942015-05-05T23:49:12.532-04:002015-05-05T23:49:12.532-04:00Thanks.

Hopefully things will run more smoothly on the tech side next time. Danah had a hard time getting it to stream for her as well, actually. Worked for me, but the show BEFORE mine kept lagging on me.Niceguy Eddiehttp://eddiecabot.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7342454496014200176.post-6227174908660200312015-05-05T23:47:18.258-04:002015-05-05T23:47:18.258-04:00Not at all.

Been trying to hear your interview with Dana , I think she's a freaking genius , but I'm having a hard time getting a link to it.

They seem to suddenly develop a set of eyes with things like that.<br /><br /><br />I hope you don't mind, but I dropped a link to your blog and to rainbow radio at Media Matters. I'm guessing if I didn't know you had been banned, there are a lot of others who didn't know, either.Imbecilenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7342454496014200176.post-44760250613267038812015-05-05T23:17:40.508-04:002015-05-05T23:17:40.508-04:00Thanks.

As fo...Thanks. I really appreciate the kind words.<br /><br />As for MMFA... I never did get a formal explanation for why I was banned. And I've asked numerous times now, but they've never replied. My GUESS is that it's one of four things...<br /><br /> (1) Foul Language , which has been going on for YEARS<br />(2) Personal Attacks (again...) <br />(3) You're not supposed to link to personal sites, and again I'd been doing THAT for years as well. (Linking back to THIS site in my signature of pretty much every post.)<br /> <br />and...(4)... One day this real *ASSHOLE* is replying to one of my comments. Typical bigoted RW jack-boot scumbag. But he replied from his PHONE. And his phone decided to leave his PHONE NUMBER at the bottom of his post! So... (VERY bad idea...) I looked him up! LOL And I replied back: "Hey, [Dude's actual name], who works at Comcast in Norfolk, Virginia: Maybe you don't want to leave your phone number on your posts!" <br /><br /><br />Now, I don't KNOW if that was the real reason, but... if it WAS, I can at least admit that I had it coming. That really was uncalled for, after all. And they did take that post down pretty quickly n any case.Niceguy Eddiehttp://eddiecabot.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7342454496014200176.post-27579948470304940172015-05-05T22:58:21.502-04:002015-05-05T22:58:21.502-04:00I had no idea you had been banned.

Considering what they (still) allow to go on there, I find it a little perplexing that they'd axe some of their better commenters and let stand what they did/do.<br /><br /><br />By the way, just finished listening to your show. Great job! I'm really looking forward to hearing the conclusion next week. It was great to hear two of my favorite MediaMatters commenters talk about the issues. It was incredibly informative and engaging.<br /><br /><br />Well done.Imbecilenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7342454496014200176.post-60188894142451010012015-05-05T21:12:08.828-04:002015-05-05T21:12:08.828-04:00Thanks!
