Erica Jong Is A Feminist Big Mouth And Huffington Post Blocks My Comment


Next Time Boychick, We Take the Whole Thing

Erica Jong, 01.30.2008

What is wrong with the chosen people? Chosen for pain? All the psychological troubles of Jewish men -- from Freud to Lenny Bernstein to Philip Roth -- must stem from the dubious ritual of circumcision.

k.b.: Erica Jong blathers (and yes I did use that word) on in her posts speaking for men and women she doesn't know and has never met and gets everyone in a twist over penis skin.

I told her she posts too much now that Hillary is running for president and to go away. I apparently ticked off a Huff Post moderator. It's not like I called her a femi-nazi like Rush Limbaugh would have, I'm sure, had he read the post. Shockingly Huff Post is no longer my bff. See the rules.

Q: What is the Huffington Post's Comment Policy?

Huffington Post pre-moderates comments on our blog posts and post-moderates comments on news stories. We never censor comments based on political or ideological point of view. We only delete those comments that include the following transgressions:

• are abusive, off-topic, use excessive foul language
• include ad hominem attacks including comments that celebrate the death or illness of any person, public figure or otherwise
• contain racist, sexist, homophobic and other slurs
• are solicitations and/or advertising for personal blogs and websites
• are posted with the explicit intention of provoking other commenters or the staff at Huffington Post.

Q: I posted a comment. Why can't I see it on the site?

Your comment violated the policy above. We pride ourselves in providing a medium for engaging and thought-provoking stories and encourage our users to speak their minds freely, provided comments fall within our commenting policy. We must respect our writers and protect them from vicious and inflammatory comments. They too are entitled to free speech- the right to share their opinions without being subject to scathing and mean-spirited remarks.
