"It seems as if the Cable News Network (CNN), the self-proclaimed “world leader of information delivery,” takes careful measures to protect its interests from the likes of nasty, decentralized, non-profit organizations like the Independent Media Center that are composed of regular, working people. In an almost laughably pathetic maneuver, CNN has banned the word “indymedia,” “indy media,” “1ndym3d14,” and so forth, from all discussion on its servers. Any use of the term – even when asking server operators questions about policy – will result in immediate exile.

Citing one’s own rambling, interminable disquisition is and has never been an acceptable protocol for 'proving' your point in academia nor in journalism. In fact it’s quite silly, unprofessional and under no circumstances does it qualify as meeting your own rigid “scientific” standards. 'And as proof of what I say now . . . I implore you to read up on ME writing the same damn thing at the following link . . . '
Way to go, Albert Einstein.
