Haven't done a "vanity" post before and I'm not even sure if this is one, but I'm curious as to how many have been banned by Breitbart, which changed after Andrew's death, again after Bannon left and, in my opinion, also after Raheem Kassam left.

I listen to Breitbart News every morning and I CAN’T STAND Marlowe! He talks and sounds like a pre-pubescent teenager. Everytime he says “masters of the universe” I want to put my fist through the radio.

It is a treat when there’s a sub filling in for him.

I used to participate semi-regularly in their forum. Then a couple of years ago when I tried to respond to a post I got a banned notice. I have no clue why, so I emailed them asking for the reason. I did so several times over a few months but never got the courtesy of a reply.

They no longer get any “clicks” from me.

As a general rule, those who own media outlets of any kind take a very dim view of people using their property to criticize them.

Rush Limbaugh once banned a long-time caller (from Maine, but I don’t remember his name) because the caller criticized Rush live, on the show.

Perhaps if you had founded and built up a media property yourself, you would understand the reasons for this.

I rarely go to breitbart, because when I do I don’t find their content to be diverse or wide ranging in scope. They seem politically focused, and that’s fine. But I’m not surprised they have a chip on their shoulder. You have to be careful about challenging the big dogs. They think they’re leading the pack in a world that’s against them, so they don’t have much tolerance for dissent among the ranks.

Marlowe is insufferable. I don’t know how anyone can listen to him.

His wife is really a doctor? Wow, that’s something. Maybe he could help me with this funny-looking mole I’ve got.

I've never been banned by brief part but I've been shadow band in the sense that nearly everyone of my comments gets marked as “spam” and never gets unmarked. I quit commenting because who wants to shout into the wind with no one hears him?

I wonder if the problems with Brietbart moderators or with the Disqus service.. I swear to God that Disqus is also moderating customer website comments surreptitiously.

I’m sorry you’ve experienced this.
I personally love Brietbart site. I don’t listen to their radio though.

and "Michelle's" real gender,

I ran a somewhat well-trafficked forum for a number of years. If you came on board with some fruitloop bulls*** like that, I wouldn't want you around either.

Just sayin'

I read there at least once a day, but I find the comments to be, ah, somewhat over the top, which is something coming from me, because my comments are over the top often.

But I don’t post there, never have never will. Pointless. And I also assume that I would be banned in short order anyway.

This site has been pretty lenient with me, and actually lets me get by with a lot, cuz I can get a little crazy from time to time, so I’m thankful for that.

Not banned but I bitterly resent their algorithm intercepting then deleting any of my posts that contain hints of naughty words. I quit them for that reason.

Breitbart’s decision to part ways with Raheem Kassam

How do you know that it wasn't Raheem Kassam's decision to part ways with Breitbart?

I have never been banned but their logorithims target all words saying Jewish or resembling it

If you write Jews are the greatest people the world has ever known or ever will

It will be held for review

Joel Pollack is super sensitive about this it’s his schtick

But paradoxically some blatant anti Jewish screeds survive there

Folks learn to skirt the identifiers but they catch up

I’ve been scored on the Hill and banned on Reality Tea

Free Republic is the only online community I know of that considers self generated content to be 'vain'. I have never agreed with that posture, and think it's silly.

Carry on.

LA roots may have been seen as anti Jewish

They are super super sensitive on that at Breitbart

It’s ironic that they sort of feed the stereotype doing that

Let’s face it they are the premier dissemination vehicle like ornaments or not

I liked it better under Bannon
