Propaganda

But he attacked axl the frontman of Guns N' Roses...  i mean lets be real here.. thats news is it not

Yeah, in a very special way....

I don't post everything that's posted on this board either, because I don't think it's interesting to post how Axl is "fat" in the news section.

Maybe you should use the search function or ask in an appropriate topic.

Please dont call this a case of the Pot calling the Kettle black, but the only explanation I can think of why the Scott article was removed from HTGTH is as follows:

HTGTH is the first place of information somebody (either MTV or some local Newspaper) go to find out the full transcript of information of GNR gossip. This site generally informs the source if the information is 'True' or 'False'. If the information is 'True' then generally the media source can get the full "unedited" transcript from this site. To take this matter further most media sources protect themselves by mentioning the source of their information. The Scott Weiland message is the meat the media have been looking for. A rock fude. Most large Media sources would come straight to this site to get the transcript. If it is on a news section it can be regarded as an 'Authenticated' source of info. If it is within a forum it cant. Therefore I believe Jarmo (could be wrong: waiting for the post 'You are wrong'  ) does not want HTGTH to be associated as the source of information for a full leathered Axl bash. Maybe he was even advised (Mysteron : Merck) to remove the article as it will be used as a source!!!

They are my few cents. Its still a form of propaganda and I still disagree with it but that I guess is what forums are about. Agreeing and Disagreeing.

I think a few nice album titles have arrisen from this hold thread for the GNR followup album:
-- 'US Propaganda'.
-- 'Forum Nonsense'
-- 'Media Whores'

come on, surely theres a difference in this instance?

this is news that directly relates to GNR and VR, simple as that - in fact, apart from the demos and tour dates, its probably the most newsworthy thing to happen to GNR in 3 years

In my opinion, Weiland's comments are very newsworthy. Its the first time in the entire CD saga that another star has called Axl's bluff. How is that not newsworthy?

It hasn't garnered as much press as I thought it would have in the mainstream media as I haven't seen ONE article on this.  This is rather big, and we finally have a big feud!

Its because it happened so recently, and the magazines haven't been able to publish it yet.

Well I hope they do(Since no other website covered this)  THEN the battle lines will be drawn.  This is going to be fun. I wonder how the magazines and newspapers react to this?

sorry to bring that again..

weiland's comment started a 78 pages thread! my opinion is that this is newsworthy.. in a few weeks, i think any gnr fan would like to understand a little bit more axl's rants.. if a gnr news site doesn't mention it, my guess is that they were asked to remove it..

[Axlfreek]

Just wondering why the Weiland Statement was originally added to the HTGTH news section and then removed.

First I wanted people to see how low somebody can go, then I realized, why give this guy the exposure he seems to crave?

i think everybody making such a big fucking deal out of weilands immature statement ha already given him the exposure he wanted

[jameslofton29]

In my opinion, Weiland's comments are very newsworthy. Its the first time in the entire CD saga that another star has called Axl's bluff. How is that not newsworthy?

To add to this, I think if what Weiland said is not deemed "newsworthy", then any Axl response to the comments cannot be deemed "newsworthy", because he will be commenting on something that people here consider irrelevant.

It really shouldn't have been removed IMO...

Look at it this way, if you're away on vacation and found 5 min on an online pc, you'd come check out htgth news right??
Would you wanna read it?
I know I would 


But in the end, it is Jarmo's call!

peace
