Somebody is removing all the "controversial" bits on the grounds that they contain "illegal copyright violations". For instance, she refers to Islam as "fucking retarded"; and then she doesn't.
Lets just get clear about this. A big issue yesterday with TVO was the poor vetting of guests. How would they allow anyone like Shaidle on a respectable, government funded station? Well, by playing around with her wiki entry, someone is making it harder for, oh I don't know a tv or radio show producer, to uncover her let us just call it "colourful" past as a blogger.
Someone therefore sees the appearance of such comments as being not career enhancing. And they realized this sometime yesterday afternoon.
PS. Am I not famous enough to have a wiki entry? What does it freakin' take anyway?
PPS. I've made a couple of screenshots, although I think wiki is is pretty good about maintaining a history of entries. Anyone else wants to take a few more, feel free.
PPPS. Shaidle does apparently have an "agent", so the changes aren't necessarily the work of a sock-puppet. But that might be demonstrable one way or another.
h/t ARC.
