Honorable Mentions
Make up your mind already.
Jon Stewart
On Again Off Again Punditry: Stewart, who is a comedian when a Democrat does something stupid and a serious political commentator when a Republican does something stupid, has yet again furthered a DNC agenda by going easy on his college drinking buddy Anthony Weiner. Imagine how brutal Stewart would have been if a Republican had acted the same way on camera.
Wouldn’t it be nice if The Daily Show anchor finally admitted that he is an unofficial wing of the DNC’s publicity machine?
John Edwards
John Edwards
Terrifying Expose: Today a grand jury handed down a six-count indictment against Edwards for his disgusting misuse of unreported political donations to hide his baby momma from his wife and the American public.
Not John Edwards
Jesus H Tapdancing Christ! This means The Enquirer (which broke the story) was actually right! Damn you, Edwards! This throws my whole news paradigm into chaos, to say nothing of my truthiness meter. Now I’m wondering whether or not the Bat Boy is actually real.

Update 6/6/11
Well, I guess I was wrong about Weiner not being dumb enough to actually be responsible for that Tweet:

Big Bad Weiner in town! He has only been maried a year!
I just saw the news on thsi Weiner guy. He has only been maried a year. For Pete sake, he stated that he had played around with atleast 6 women! Oh evay’! online only I hope! LOL! Like I said, what the heck are they doing out there in our government?
Hey, where is everybody. This feels like a scene from the Twilight Zone? Did Joe Fosco get barred? How come noone else comes on here? Where are his articles? SQE
Dear SQE,
The new message system has certainly contributed to the loss of some commenter’s. The new system makes it very difficult to be anonymous. For some reason, most people like being anonymous on my message boards. One of my assistants asked me if I want to use the old message system to try to boost the number of comments. I said no. I am okay with the way it is right now. The number of viewers has remained stable, which means more to me. Whether you are visiting to see how many people are leaving comments, or how many people are not leaving comments, you are still stopping by.
Thanks,
JF
I think the ominous, serious sounding “Legal Notice” threatening a lawsuit against commenters is what scared everyone off. It was posted on the other thread and then removed, thereafter.
Dear Horse…,
I find your opinion very surprising. The jerk that posted those ridiculous notices is libelous in doing so (in my opinion). Who needs to have a legal notice posted to know that libelous information is not tolerated on this site? It is further in my opinion that the person responsible for posting the notice is merely harassing me. I do not believe such notice is necessary because I run a respectable site and remove/block potentially libelous information and/or add comments indicating that the information in question is merely ‘alleged’.
I find it interesting that the notices pertained to the food industry in Chicago, where in one of the articles I asked for the publics help in learning about the corruption that plagues the industry. One would have to wonder if the ‘legal notice’ is a clever tactic to obstruct justice in a silly attempt to intimidate potential witnesses from coming forward. Forgive me for seeing it this way and making the decision to pull the plug on the allegedly potential intimidator. Unfortunately, you have decided to give this person a platform.
As I have said in my previous comment, the number of views is more important to me than the number of comments. And, courageous tipsters that are not easily intimidated by a carefully worded ‘legal notice’ on a message thread know they have the option of emailing me directly at jfosco@americannewspost.com.
Thank you,
Joe Fosco
Hi Joe, regarding this libel desposition we are now being tactful; If you have something such as a threat already reported to SVU in the CPD and they have already information on thier police file; would these comments then be considered as libel comments? SQE
I am not scared off. Just haven’t had anything to contribute.
Same here.
In addition, I believe the threat indicated a ‘possible’ lawsuit against anyone committing libel. Nothing about said legal notice is different from anything reasonable.
Here was my response to the threat:
According to a source, a number of years ago, Joe Caccamo allegedly took part in an Outfit related scheme deceiving the FBI in a cover-up of a major laundry detergent heist. According to the source, Caccamo allegedly orchestrated the unlawful smuggling (hiding evidence) of the detergent via 4-passenger automobiles, instead of using a tractor-trailer, which the FBI had under surveillance. It is further alleged that Caccamo laughed about the incident for weeks because he allegedly indicated that the FBI were a bunch of idiots for sitting in their car waiting for a tractor-trailer to pull out while the evidence was being smuggled via automobiles right under their noses.
Because of the alleged information that I have acquired (above), I am asking the FBI to contact me if their records would be consistent with the information above. I am cranking up an article on the subject and could use all of the leads I could get. Thank you.
Regarding the libel notice; Now, let me get this straight the fact that the Captian of the Detectives and the Chief of Police was emailed I recieved a phone that that I would be raped if I were found walking in the 3 live parking lot9a year before Tony Catalano turned up missing). Well, let’s not get ahead of ourselves, but.,
I do believe these deviants dug there own graves by making me a victim. Notice, this was done a year before Tony Catalano turned up missing while hanging with this same gang. Well, come and get me and sue me! Infact I insist. Let’s just hope on done to any police station of your choice and get the paper work going not to mention the fact that SVU came to a particular retail store and got the vermont on camera. All guilty parties do come forward with your libel suit! Good Lord, I dare you too ! I do believe that someone in here has recently made notice that our Joe boy hangs with this same group. Please, keep up the good work Lonestar commenter! SQE A Victim coming forward!
