Lyyna 0 Report post Posted April 13, 2009 I recently heard that Amazon has changed some sort of internal censorship policy. This policy removes the sales rankings from books that the new rules deem inappropriate. However, it seems that this "policy" has been skewed towards the LGBT community. While Amazon is claiming publicly that they have no new policy and this is all a glitch on the site, privately authors of certain books who contacted Amazon to find out why their novels disappeared were told it was because of these new censorship guidelines. As Jeff Probst so succinctly puts it in this blog Amazon has some explaining to do. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
lemontree 0 Report post Posted April 14, 2009 *******FINAL UPDATE****************** Amazon has released a statement of apology stating that it was an "embarrassing and ham-fisted cataloging error" that pertained to 57,310 listings. They also say that It has been misreported that the issue was limited to Gay & Lesbian themed titles. So it's over. Amazon admits they goofed, and I, for one, shall give them the benefit of the doubt and say I do not believe that there was any malicious intent. Case closed.

Sauceboss 0 Report post Posted April 14, 2009 Because Dogs aren't given the option to fight or not like people are. So someone is ALWAYS going to stand up for them. Plus you have to breed and train them to fight, and people aren't really happy with all that. I really dislike dog fighting, but mostly cause it's just not fun to watch, and I wouldn't want to imagine my dog scraping with another dog. Accidental death and all that seems to really get under peoples skin too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
