2. I don't think they are censoring what I say, but can't deny the post in question has been change. I had no idea until you brought it up. I can write whatever I want, and if they feel they need to edit, I'm ok with that. They own the blog, not me. "Their blog Their rules."
Ok, sounds like if you write for a blog, but don't own it, it's ok to take a comp? But it's not ok if you own the blog and have full control over what gets published? That's some serious gymnastics from what you wrote a few posts back which sounded like it was ok as long as you had full control over what you wrote. If anything I'd think that would lead to the argument that only blog owners should take comps. Or are you just making this stuff up as you go along?
