40 <font size=+2><b>T</b></font>he Independent Media Center is a collectively
41 run media outlet for the creation of radical, accurate, and passionate
42 tellings of the truth. We work out of a love and inspiration for people
43 to who continue to work for a better world, despite corporate media's
44 distortions and unwillingness to cover the efforts to free humanity.
48 Indymedia is a democratic newswire. We <b>want</b> to see and hear the real
49 stories, news, and opinions from around the world. While we struggle to
50 maintain the news wire as a completely open fourm we <i>do</i> monitor it
51 and remove posts. <br>
52 You can see the decisons we have made by viewing the
53 <a href="http://www.indymedia.org/search-process.php3?hidden=true">hidden articles page</a>. In the
54 overwhelming number of cases, stories have been removed for the following
55 reasons: <a href="http://www.indymedia.org/display.php3?article_id=4080">being comments, not news</a>, duplicate posts,
56 <a href="http://www.indymedia.org/display.php3?article_id=4004">obviously false or
57 libelous posts</a>, or inappropriate content.
59 We are working on the technology
60 to make this process more transparent, so that you can see when such decisions
61 have been made, and why.
62 In future, we want our audience to be part of this process too. For the meantime,
63 you can check out stories that we have choosen to remove by looking at the
64 <a href="http://www.indymedia.org/search-process.php3?hidden=true">hidden articles</a> page.
