Reader S.: "RMN needs to address this issue if it is to continue to be a leader in 'freedom of speech' on the internet."

In Response To: Reader: "The one who complained has options." (hobie)
(Thanks, S. :)
Reader S. now writes (and I'll comment, following):
***************************************************************************
Re: Reader: 'The one who complained has options.'
The option is not in 'posting' alone, as anyone interested can post in the CGI forum. The option that RMN needs to offer to readers should be in challenging an agent who posts, and to offer the opportunity for the reader to debate the posted subject. RMN does not offer this option. AS Hobie pointed out, 'we reserve the option to offer an email address, or, if we do, to answer or respond to emails'. RMN agents have the freedom to post in the public domain, yet keep themselves in a 'safe zone', by not releasing their email addresses. This removes the challenges or debates of readers; the same readers that may contribute monetarily to the existence of RMN.
RMN needs to address this issue if it is to continue to be a leader in 'freedom of speech' on the internet.
***************************************************************************
(hobie here.) RMN addressed the issue almost two decades ago. :)
Rumor Mill News was originally a place where anyone could post. However, as Rayelan describes it: Unfortunately, the RMNews Reading Room came under attack by "vacuum cleaners", "disinformation agents", "time consumers", cyber terrorists, and by a new breed of Internet attackers and disruptors, the "Internet graffiti taggers" who filled the Reading Room with stupid posts which said nothing, meant nothing and merely took up space on the bulletin board. That issue was addressed by instituting the Agent team arrangement. The result is the RMN Reading Room you see today, the one that drew you and so many others here and that is presently making this bit of conversation possible. :)
It's an alternative news site and news 'digest', not a chat room.
Freedom of speech is not an entitlement to be heard. If one writes a letter to the editor of a print newspaper, one knows it may or may not be published - even though one had to pay a certain amount for the ability to read that newspaper.
Purchasing an edition of the paper (supporting the paper) does not purchase a right to be published; it only purchases the ability to read that edition of the paper.
At RMN we provide the ability to read in the Reading Room and CGI Room for free - but it does cost something for us to provide it; so voluntary support by our Readers is a necessity and certainly appreciated. What such support "buys" you is the likelihood that we'll still be here when you next come looking to read for free.
Blessings.
