As for which parts are relevant, anyone wanting to see the whole text and decide otherwise is welcome to click the link or find the citation.

I don't understand why you simply can't put the quote up in context. You're there and it's right at your fingertips so I simply don't see how it can be an onerous task for you. You seem able to find more than snippets.

Your actions, in only supplying snippets, appears (and I emphasize appears) to be a deceptive tactic, whether or not you intend it to be taken as such.

I've made it clear why I do it. You prefer long blocks of text. I don't. I link or cite so people can see context. Those who want to see the whole thing have an easy way to do so.

It's certainly an advance on those who post snippets without a link or cite, and when the quote is googled it's on a website that can't remember where it originally came from. Now, a question - do you equally feel it appears deceptive when done by those whose opinion on the NBC question accords with yours?
