Message: <blockquote data-quote="Guest&nbsp; 85555" data-source="post: 8891671">Definitely I think that could use better context but the comment itself appears in a weird context in the document. I'm frankly a little confused by its placement. It appears twice in the document that I can see, and in both cases it isn't in a section devoted to the issue of hateful content, but the two general termination sections (VIII and X, I believe). Maybe part of the confusion here is this is a comment in the section itself and I think a lot of people are confused by what these comments are exactly. The full text of the comment definitely leads with discussion of racism, sexism, homophobia, etc. But it also does seem to get into other issues like that people waive their right to sue over termination: But the section they are commenting on is this: Like I said, I am totally open to journalists being criticized. They get things wrong at times and that needs to be corrected when it happens. I don't know that I would attribute sinister motives to this, as I am not fully sure I understand the context or full implications even after looking it up and reading it again myself. Again, I do find these comments rather confusing since I don't know why they are in the document. So I am open to understanding more. But I also feel like this reads as if they are front loading the issues of racism, in order to make it sound like all of the other stuff in the termination clauses are part of some kind of morality clause (when it looks like their main concern is IP protection). Would definitely like to see others weigh in on this</blockquote>
