Apparently the heathen in question, one Nick Gisburne, is just the latest in a long line of heathens to face the awesomely soul-crushing wrath of You Tube. And atheists aren’t the only ones offending You Tube’s delicate sensibilities; last week, I favorited Anna Nicole Smith’s anti-fur ad (shot for PETA), only to find a few days later that the video had been removed and the user’s account suspended. Now, I highly doubt that PETA asked You Tube to remove the vid and ban the user - because they actually encourage people to download and post their stuff far and wide, from You Tube to MySpace to…well, whatever the yung’uns are into nowadays. Not to mention, the user’s profile gave the impression that s/he represented PETA, what with the distinctive moniker (PETATV) and the exclusively PETA video archive.

The media's coverage of her passing was rife with misogyny, and it made me sick to watch. The sexism surrounding poor Anna’s death was absolutley apalling.

Additionally, You Tube also appears to have an issue with atheists; Nick Gisburne, for example, is one in a long line of heathens to have their accounts suspended by You Tube. In this case, Nick’s reading of select (violent) passages of the Koran, sans commentary, seems to have offended You Tube’s delicate sensibilities. So I guess they no likey likey atheists or animal rightists. (My oh my, I wonder how they’d feel about yours truly, then? ) [...] [...] Earlier this week, I mentioned in passing that the Anna Nicole Smith anti-fur PSA that I’d favorited on You Tube had been inexplicably removed, and the uploader’s account suspended.
