Hi all<br><br>If we are indeed talking about the blog post then we should probably blogging etiquette which would mean eher updating the original blog post *or* posting a new, separate update blog post clarifying the situation.<br><br>Happy to draft something if requried.<br>Cheers<br>Simon<br><br><br><br><br><br>> From: j@jonathanleighton.com<br>> To: cc-webedit@lists.aktivix.org; mediateam@lists.riseup.net<br>> CC: jjjstevenson@fastmail.fm; muppet317@hotmail.com; letyourlifesing@riseup.net<br>> Date: Tue, 17 Nov 2009 16:51:42 +0000<br>> Subject: [mediateam] Re: [Cc-webedit] "Injured" policeman peice<br>> <br>> I have moderately strong reservations about taking it down. It means we<br>> are doing exactly the same propaganda tricks that the MET were recently<br>> accused of when they issued an instruction that none of their<br>> publications could included pictures of officers without ID numbers<br>> showing. I also don't think that it's in the spirit of a blog, in that<br>> blog posts are written at a given time based on the information<br>> available at that time.<br>> <br>> Ideally, we would update the blog post with new information. I know<br>> there is sensitivity about not ruining the Guardian story, but can<br>> anyone think of a way around that for now? (Maybe "It has become clear<br>> that this claim was falsified. A press release will be issued soon, when<br>> we have all the information available.")<br>> <br>> I've copied in the media list as this is relevant to them.<br>> <br>> Jon<br>> <br>> On Tue, 2009-11-17 at 12:51 +0000, letyourlifesing@riseup.net wrote:<br>> > I second taking this down.
