Story Chat is GONE

[Iggy]

Thanks to all those who can't have an intellegent debate without racism or racist remarks, 9News has now removed Story Chat.

Don't you all feel proud of yourselves now?

I thought something was wrong with my computer!
Too bad, I agree with Iggy.

HEY! It's the IGGY page :)I don't know what 9News even thinks they're going to accomplish, except that they no longer want to be in association with the forum. Everyone, including all of the racist losers who have to ruin things for everyone else, will still find a way to slither in here. The only thing 9News is accomplishing is keeping out nice people who we may have gotten to know in the future.

Are they having technical difficulties with the linkage, or is it officially gone?

It would be a shame to not have a reason to go to the 9news website anymore..

I hope they bring it back. Sure, people can still post, but the convenient link to the story will not be there.

I saw a lot of bad posts, but people expressing themselves does not reflect on 9news. The only reason I read their stories instead of another news channel was this forum. There are nice people on here and I have enjoyed chatting and discussing with all of you.

It's gone. I thought I was having trpuble, or the web site was experiencing technical difficulties, so I e-mailed the web producer. He e-mailed me back in about 2 minutes and said they were closing it down because of all the hateful racist remarks. I'll see if I can copy and paste the e-mail. Hold on.

Thank you for taking the time to contact us. Story Chat was created as a forum for our viewers/users to share their thoughts and exchange meaningful ideas and opinions about news stories and issues affecting our community. Much of the feedback and discussion has been good. Unfortunately, some people have used this forum to spread racist, vile, indecent, obscene and inappropriate material. While we recognize that everyone is entitled to their opinions and thoughts, Story Chat was never intended as a forum to spread hateful and hurtful messages. After much debate and thoughtful consideration we have chosen to take Story Chat down until such time that we are able to provide a better mechanism for the respectful exchange of ideas. We look forward to bringing back a better Story Chat in the very near future.



Once again, thank for your note and thanks for using 9NEWS.com

Maybe the liberal media didn't like free speech, naaa...There was way too much support for the CSU Republicans and Anti Ward Churchill.
Typical Liberal, if you don't like what you read or see it turn it off. Just like the Clintoons yesterday

I blame it on the illegals. Lol! If they'd not been here them this would not be an issue. 9News sucks for being so one sided. This is an issue many people feel strongly about and have a right to voice their opinion on. Meh. They'll just lose readership. Not my problem. I'll just in elsewhere unless it's back up. They have slow updates anyway.

[aoi]

in=go :) as in gone...or maybe I'll hang out some to annoy you all. Heh.
