HAS DTV SOLD OUT TO CENSORSHIP INTERESTS???

Thu Jun 10, 2010 7:24 pm » by **Redwoodrick**

I have noticed that DTV has undergone a facelift concurrent with their announcement that google (google sucks) has blocked advertising revenue for this sight.What I noticed is that the "videos being watched right now" feature has been greatly abbreviated and offers the same 5 videos over and over.Also the "breaking news" feature has slowed down to the point that the same "breaking news" stories are the only ones listed for days on end.
WTF?
This reeks of censorship.Am I the only one who sees this?I used to turn to DTV every day several times a day for breaking news but lately I have been seeing news on Yahoo before DTV gets it up there.Also many stories are simply not being posted.
So my question to DTV programmers is HAVE YOU SOLD OUT TO AD DOLLAR PRESSURE?IF NOT THEN PLEASE EXPLAIN!

I know some of you will flame me for suggesting what I have suggested but it just seems like really odd timing that DTV format gets way more restrictive and less disclosing in the same week that they announce ad dollars being withheld by google politics.

Yes, I did...I also noticed that my post was taken off the "recent topics" show list two minutes after it went p there.Two minutes.The other topics are up there much longer.
WHY?

umm..okay well the new topics part I understand now,but my assertation that DTV is filtering breaking news and limiting video variety and disclosure with the new format stands.

The difference is that breaking news has slowed to a trickle.And the same "breaking news" for days on end.Whereas the old format would have updates and and new stories several times a day.
Maybe it is just that nothing newsworthy is happening now as compared to before the change.
And for those who wonder "what other breaking news?" there is quite obviously an absence of new stories relative to the quantity and variety being aired before the shift.
I am not a DTV hater,I have come to rely on this sight quite a bit.But I cant pretend it hasnt been dumbed down in content and variety with the new format cause it is demonstrably so.
Also the same 6 vids being offered up on the home screen for a week!?
WHY?
