comment section said this under a story...

"Reader Comments

Based on the response of our readers, Tulsa World has elected to disable comments for this article."



I've seen some freaky stuff on there so it must've been fandamtastic.  

I know I shouldn't read the comments but sometimes my curiosity gets the best of me...like watching the tornado survivors on national television.

they do it pretty often. i guess since the site redesign they have some time on their hands to go through and censor some of the articles.  The one about the penis pump judge getting a DUI had the comments shut down.

Most likely because the article got Farked.

The story about the couple charged with bestiality had its comments deleted also. I`m sure I didn`t help matters when I posted "so, what are you in for?".

I've noticed that a great number of articles involving race, crime, and the combination thereof get pulled pretty quickly.  There are some weird people on there.

The World wants to get as many hits as possible, but when are advertisers going to wake up and realize that weirdos like Joe Allen-Doty and Graychin aren't going to buy much with their $800 monthly Social Security checks?

Can you say what you know or would it be inappropriate?

I think Inteller is right.  I have heard that attorneys want to find out who post certain comments on certain stories. For instance when people are lambasting judges, or people are making comments that indicate they have direct knowledge about certain cases.  People make some pretty brutal posts and are pretty inhuman at times.  Others are just plain stupid.

has nothing to do with that....though that would be funny.

sooner or later a lot of people who signed up on there will find out painfully that they shouldn't have signed up there.

If it's not lawyers, it has to be something much worse.  Like telemarketers who call and want you to spend a weekend in Branson "on us" for a timeshare.  LOL!
