I think you're missing the point.

Some bloggers are deleting comments that alert their readers to the fact that there are better deals for them on credit cards.

Some bloggers are deleting spam or personal attacks (deliberately posting personal info etc)

The two groups are very different, though the former is trying to pull the latter into the same simple two category 'censors' or 'does not censor' in order to achieve one of two things:

Dilution of the negativity of being labeled a censor

Or

Dilution of the integrity of another blog by branding them with the same negative brush.

It's really very simple.

Ps show me a blog in this space with more than 4 readers (including their own family) that isn't monetized.
