CAIR Controversy Conclusion
Posted by Frank J. at 12:36 PM | View blog reactions | Comments (13)

The newspaper Hernando Today did a story on the Right Wing Howler being shut down by CAIR and includes a few quote from me about the editorial in question and CAIR. Seems to be a pretty balanced article and kudos to the reporter for doing some actual research on the subject (compare it to the article in the Hernando Times).

Also, Vilmar has a statement up where his site used to be announcing his retirement from blogging (planned before this incident) and asking people not to be to harsh on his service provider.

I'm not sure if there is some big lesson to learn from this. This site is hosted by Hosting Matters who hosts some of the most controversial blogs such as Little Green Footballs, so I'm not worried about something similar happening with this site. I guess my one worry would be someone selectively quoting IMAO in a news article without context, as that would make it pretty easy to make us look worse than Hitler. And we're not worse than Hitler. We're much nicer, really. Plus, we hate the German people and all their descendants.
