Matthew Lee had a little website that exposed more corruption in the U.N. Now all of a sudden it's gone:

This is really no surprise. Liberal Google loves the corrupt UN. :(

4th listing on google. You mean they took his site off google news. Is it wrong to have some standards for what is called news?
Nah. It's censorship. Plain and simple.
How's it censorship? You can still use Google to find that guy. All that happened is that he's not listed as a main provider in Google News if you search articles to make his website pop up the same way you can't find Alex Jones on there either, even though you can easily type in their names into the Google search engine and have em instantly pop up on top. Those guys aren't considered news sites, but rather fringe or alternate news the same way blogs are, so they just don't pop up when using the Google news-only filter. Heck, be glad there's even a Google news filter in the first place. Back in my days.. ;)

If its accurate news about the UN and Google is trying to bury it then Sandy is right.

Please Google "Matthew Lee" (http://www.google.com/search?q=Matthew+Lee) (generally, or under Google News (http://news.google.com/news?q=Matthew+Lee)). If Sandy is correct that this comprises censorship, then I'm the Queen of England.

In Another UN thread (http://www.sciforums.com/showthread.php?t=63223), we have begun an examination of UN criticism that has gone a little deeper than we find in drive-by pot-shot threads like this one. There (http://www.sciforums.com/showpost.php?p=1738267&postcount=58), I pointed out that Matthew Lee is an asset to the UN's purpose:
Inner City Press may (http://www.innercitypress.com/un1google021408.html) be an inviting place where those prone to criticism of the UN here can to sink their teeth into some actual issues. Spending some time there may not diminish your antipathy for the UN, but it is sure to leave you better informed. I have great respect for the criticism that ICP consistently levels at the UN- it's a far cry from superficial cheap-shots dismissing the UN as useless or impotent. Matt Lee is a wonderful gadfly, and a friend of the purpose of the UN, goading us toward further reform, and compelling more concerted and effective action amid the messy, often chaotic environment of international negotiations over humanity's most vexing challenges.
