...on moderating the Bellingham Herald Politics Blog.

On December 6, Mr Stark issued the following statement on that blog...


Yes, you have a 1st Amendment right to express yourself somewhere. The stuff you post on my blog is subject to review by me.

Moderating a blog is not easy, even when it is a relatively low volume venue such as Latte Republic.

God Speed, Mr Stark. I hope you succeed.
