From Wikinews, the free news source you can write!

I can't comprehend how it's okay to report a story this disturbing BUT it's not okay to put in the swear word that the guy said. If we're grown-up enough to read a story about a person being needlessly murdered, we're grown-up enough to read the word, "fuck," and vice-versa. Wikinews is not television. It doesn't have to kowtow to the FCC.

You're right. And we have a policy against that type of self-censoring. But none of the sources we have report the word used. - Amgine | talk en.WN 17:26, 21 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Fair enough. Thanks for the revert. Fucking censorship '-)
If you want to include it, you could call one of the sources, or the cops, to get the accurate quotation. It'd be funny to see OR for one word.  :) Nyarlathotep 18:21, 21 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]
