I'm one of the posters that had my comments deleted. I've put the text of each post at the bottom of this thread.— November 4, 2013 4:51 p.m.
Manchester buys more San Diego papers
I made comments to both the UT's "Hyper Local" coverage of itself AND Manchester's "Nice Guy" award. Both were deleted. I re-posted them, and both were subsequently removed. Here is my short post for the UT''s buying up several local community newspapers and then heralding the news, in essence covering itself: "The San Diego Union-Tribune reporting on itself is, at best, self-serving self promotion and, at worst, a blatant conflict of interest. " And here is my comment about Manchester's nonstop streak of self-promotion: "Joan Kroc gave millions of dollars to charities over the years, often anonymously and with specific instructions to avoid the limelight. The far-reaching extent of her philanthropy wasn't completely known until after her death. I can't help but compare Doug Manchester's vomitous nonstop self-promotion to that. It's pathetic to campaign publicly to be liked, accompanied by the constant trumpeting of the UT's Public Relations machine, instead of simply letting your good deeds speak for themselves". Both comments are still currently up as of 5pm Nov 4. I'd be surprised if they are still online on the UT'S website tomorrow.— November 4, 2013 4:49 p.m.
