@Jake. Again, just for the record, plenty of general swearing, but they’re also using the phrase “donut bag” rather than the homophobic slang you’re claiming.

Kurt is an asshat of epic proportions. Will he get fired? Who knows.

I know 1 person that has canceled their print subscription to post dispatch because of Kurt Greenbaum. I will no longer read the online edition. I think this is a signal that its time for post dispatch to go the way of the dinosaur. There are many newspapers out there that have gone away that were much better than post dispatch- there is no reason to keep it around.

We dont want our news sources contacting our employers about content we are viewing or comments we are making.

If anyone does come across the downloaded version then this program

http://www.videolan.org/vlc/

will play Flash Video (.flv) and this one

http://www.erightsoft.com/SUPER.html

will either play .flv or convert it to just about any other video format, such as .avi or .wmv, suitable for hosting on a website.

I wouldn’t be surprised if the video was uploaded as a torrent somewhere as well.

Youtube, or the original posters, appear to have made the video private. Kinda silly really, it must have been downloaded ten thousand times already.

I think my choice of a User Name was maybe a little too prophetic.

I seem to be suffering from said disease.

Carlos,

Thank you. I apologize profusely.

I blame myself now. No idea why I couldn’t find that article after looking for half an hour.
Again, sorry. Your journalistic integrity remains intact.

Might I make a suggestion? (Wouldn’t be surprised if you told me to fuck off at this point–I kind of deserve it)

You might want to include something along the lines of … “Many readers have written in to point out that…etc. etc.” in your articles.

Giving credit where credit is due fosters a sense of participation and, at the very least, covers YOUR ass if the information turns out to be incorrect. (Hopefully it isn’t, but one can only do so much to verify leads…).

Personally, I don’t care if I am given credit–I did not expect it seeing as I was providing the information in the comments rather then submitting it in a more traditional fashion, but considering the fact that this whole subject is primarily about journalistic integrity it might not be a bad idea to dot the “i’s” and cross the “t’s”.

And again, sorry.

ALL BE DAMNED:

Can you provide a link to them, or more specifically, the original story?

I am still trying to get a link to my friend.

I am not at home now. Writing from iPhone. The only comments I deleted were a couple from “Kurt greenbum” for reasons I stated. Your comments are still here. The reason I don’t personally acknowledge everybody who point out news tips is because sometimes I can get up to ten emails giving me the same scoop.
In this case, others were emailing me the same video

I posted 4-5 comments in a row, including a link to the video you discuss in the above article.

They were all in the same article’s comments section. I do not remember the title of the article, but I have searched all of your posts discussing Kurt Greenbaum and none of those comments are present in any of the articles.

I’m not saying you deleted my posts, but rather the entire article (and thus my comments with it).

I am more then willing to pony up an apology providing you can direct me to those comments I posted.

I was simply trying to direct a friend to those comments (he was curious and I could not remember everything I stated in them, so I decided to just send him a link) and failed entirely because I cannot seem to find them.

Maybe you can direct me to them?
