WattsUpWithThat... Censorship over at Watts'

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Wattsupwiththat.com has a very rigorous, if one sided, comments policy.

Those of us who have tried to present the rational scientific side of the AGW discussion over at Anthony Watts' website, know from first hand experience how freely they cleanse opposing commentary.  In fact, it's the main reason I resorted to putting together my modest WhatsUpWithThatWatts.blogspot.com website in the first place.


In my last post over at WUWTW.blogspot I was able to show an example of this censoring of information that by all rights deserves to be posted in a forum that boasts an interest in understanding the science behind our planet's Anthropogenic Global Warming situation.  {Well at least if it's an intellectually sincere boast}

I agree with this comment I received:

I know it can be a chore, but it may be of some value to those of us who follow WUWT that, if whenever you post a comment that you suspect will be suppressed, if you grab a screenshot and then upload it at a site like this. I'd enjoy saying I found it and ask why it was not posted.
So much so that,
I send out this invitation to all who feel WUWT has unfairly censored legitimate rational comments.  Send it to me and I will post your comments here.


It would be helpful to have the WUWT thread title along with the approximate time/date of your attempted post included.  Along with any background information and/or links you feel are appropriate.

Please send your contributions to citizenschallenge@gmail.com -
Since I tend to skim through the mail box and ignore most of it,
including "WUWT SUPPRESSION" in the subject line will guarantee my attention,
I'll acknowledge receipt and post it as soon as possible.
