"Right-Wing Rigging of Digg Getting National Attention"
[
A conservative group on the popular content sharing site, Digg, was exposed on
Thursday via an article on AlterNet written by Ole Ole Olson, News Junkie Post�s
news senior editor and chief social media strategist. The story has been getting
nationwide attention and angry users are calling for Digg�s CEO Kevin Rose to
take action.

The right-wing group, �Digg Patriots� organized itself using a Yahoo! group.
Olson discovered that the group�s mission was to bury any stories submitted to
Digg by users who often had left-leaning views. According to Olson, the
right-wing online group was able to bury stories in a matter of minutes after
being submitted to Digg so that the stories never saw the light of day in the
�Upcoming� section.

The Digg Patriots also have members that are being accused of being part of an
online cyber-bullying group that targets children, primarily on YouTube. The
article and video were published on the NJP, click here to see it.

Digg is a popular site where users share articles, photos and video links. News
outlets have often used Digg for story leads. The expose shows how right-wing
individuals are making an effort to stop left-leaning stories from being shared
widely. In contrast, Olson discovered that the Digg Patriots favored stories
about conservative pundits such as Rush Limbaugh, Glen Beck, and Michelle
Malkin.

This is part of Olson�s AlterNet article: .......


The News Junkie Post is one of many websites in the Digg Patriot�s hit list.
Other websites being targeted are FreakOutNation, Rawstory, The Public Record,
The Nation, Media Matters for America, PoliticusUSA, Alternet, Fire Dog Lake,
Political Carnival, TruthOut, DailyKos, The Joshua Blog, The Brad Blog,
Huffington Post, Science Blogs, Smirking Chimp, Down With Tyranny, and Crooks
and Liars.

Olson also wrote that the Digg Patriots target content submitted by particular
lefty users and that its ring leader, a user going by the name of
�bettverboten,� issues orders to its members to bury any stories, regardless of
content that were submitted by them. NJP Digg users have often being targeted.

You hate anyone who thinks differently than you. A mental health
professional would say that you're very insecure. Why are you so
insecure?
