Sweet Dreams are made of this..

Strange things happen in the blogging world.
Before we start, we need to thank our host at Newport
Voices that has allowed us to speak our piece..unabridged!
Every time we put finger to keyboard we bless the
proprietor of Newport Beach Voices for his great integrity
and truthful kindness. Thank you, thank you and thank you!


We bring this to all's attention due to events
which have happened recently at our own companion blogging
site: Orange Juice Blog! Someone new has come in and
taken over the self-elected editor duties..and therefore
..finds it no problem to pull anyone's article without
notice. This is called Tyranny! No problem..we still
easily find other prime locations to spout off, but
ethically....we find it totally offensive to have people
pull remarks off-line or take out select responses to
articles they don't approve of. This also has a direct
effect on those involved and shows how dangerous the cyber
world can be!


Below are a few of our comments regarding the events in
the OC cyber universe lately!
===================================================================

It seems like a million years ago…that we first started
putting out “the word from the bird” about Orange County
politics. Contention was all over the place and great guys
like Claudio and Sean Mill sprinkled their wisdom here and
there. We had a great guy called Ryan Trabuco…..we had Tom
Gordon - we had Larry Gilbert and we had the proverbial
“Winships”. Every one had their roll. Every one was more
than willing to let all the stops out….and speak from their
gut and hearts. Did we forget to mention the great Art
Pedroza…who has had to have the broadest shoulders in blogging
history? Art has taken more flack than a B-17 over Berlin
in 1945! Undeservedly so...many, many times!

So, what is our point? Well, it goes something like this…..
anyone can be replaced in the publishing business. No one
is above the law…or law of the jungle and no one can take the
law into their own hands! You see, it is called: “Responding
to the needs of the public!” Some "donkey" editors feel
compelled to take the law into their own hands. When this
happens…the integrity of the entire publication is greatly
put at risk of "Failed Truthfulness".

A warning?……”Yes, a warning!” Changing the format of the
Orange Juice Blog is no big deal. Editing its' writers
without notice or ripping responses to articles is called:
“Tyranny!”



===============================*Back to our
wonderful Staff at Newport Beach Voices: God bless and
thanks again for keeping the door open for true knowledge!
