What the hell did Napoleon have again??

Napoleon was playing the nipple.

VictoireFlamel, keep up the amazing work. I'm glad to hear that this thing is getting resolved. I'm also pleased to hear that the press is taking notice (hopefully their phone calls are getting delayed too much behind Anon complaint calls :) )

Again, the downside of threats is that while they may get you what you want in the short term, they tend to damage you in the long term. Especially when public image is involved. Scientology's biggest weapon against its opponents is the "web terrorist" angle. And while using your rights as you see fit to block ads, or not buy stuff, or whatever from your perspective seems to be perfectly justified, the real issue is how mass communications of such action can be "spun" by the other side.

What's a bit of short term "win" if you lose the war?

And again, there's the very real fact that while we HATE Bunker's account being down, the fact that it IS and why is useful in getting the press to pay attention to this story. Now I'm not saying, don't continue to lobby to get Bunker's account back. OF COURSE YOU SHOULD. But you HAVE to take the highest moral road possible, even to the extent of NOT threatening to exercise your right to punish Google and YouTube, because THE MEDIA IS WATCHING. Or at least they WILL BE if people do what they should and contact them.

Thanks Wileycoyote and Puddlewhite, downloading ad blocker as I type.

I am not using the application as a 'threat' or as punishment, I merely do not want $cientology shit appearing unwanted on my screen.
I understand sites like this depend on ads for income, but to tell the truth, I have maybe clicked on 10 ads in my life (many years on the 'net), so I have no regrets blocking all the ads.
If there is a message here for the tubes, it is that because they have decided to accept tainted money from a corrupt and destructive cult that I am now blocking ALL the ads on their site ( after-all, who knows what else might pop up on there ...).
If a site was promoting racism or child abuse (through ads) shouldn't they be held accountable? This is only part of what their newest client is selling.

I'd be pissed if I was an Ad-exec for another advertiser and found out my ads were running side by side with $cientology recruitment ads.

On the Eric Von Wade show WBM just said that only Stephen Colbert can get his channel reinstated, as YouTube said the one stumbling block to reinstatement was WBM's first channel posting a short Colbert clip constituted a copyright infraction.

If Colbert waves that infraction...YouTube says WBM will go back up.

...now we know what we must do: Contact Colbert!

Viacom owns Comedy Central. Can we influence them? Let's see....

Time for "Operation Colbert Bump!"

Contact Viacom:
(Same company that Sumner Redstone owns, and he's the man who fired Cruise from Paramount, BTW.)

Viacom, Inc.

Key people:
Executive Chairman:
Sumner M. Redstone

Mark Bunker, get a Beard-Strong Bracelet!

We the Colbert Nation will make this happen.

There's only one problem: it's not Colbert's decision to make. Comedy Central is very serious about keeping their video off of YouTube. Jon Stewart has even gone so far as to openly mock the CC executives on air for being behind the times.

Whut? Seriously?

MAN THE HARPOONS!

Only, someone tell me where to point 'em. Who do we contact?

oh FUCK yeah.

I AM America.

sounds funny, but I haven't seen it... youtube link?

Wait, how does that warrant the whole channel coming down? Why not just edit out that one clip?

I haven't really been keeping up with this, so I'm probably missing something obvious.

Very funny, I.

Sauce? 'Cause I ain't doing jack shit until I see this is for real. Too many faggots running around on hearsay and bs. DISREGARD THAT I SUCK COCKS.

Okay, let's swing into action.
