BTW: Be Sure to Boycott Wikipedia

Posted by E!! on August 28, 2008
Barack Obama, Random Bloggy Stuff, Stanley Kurtz

I was a Wikipedia fan until I learned of their behind-the-scenes uber-sly politics-via-edits. 

For a new example, Stanley Kurtz’ Wiki bio page has been edited a lot lately.  Why?  He’s been busy researching and talking about more Ayers-Obama links.  The current entry is mostly cut-and-pasted from an Obama campaign release and is Complete and Utter Nonsense.  It also cites Media Matters which is not a credible source.

I counsel everyone to boycott Wikipedia!  And tell your friends!

Why not go in and re-edit it the way you’d like to see it? Everything in there can be added to.
Might be fun!

Good catch, E.

Wikipedia is notorious for edit wars. Another editor has already suggested the Stanley Kurtz page be locked to prevent further vandalism.

There’s a good reason the Obamatons don’t want the Bill Ayers story getting out.

They got no defense. :)
