http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2016-08-29/huffingon-post-revoked-publishing-access-journalist-after-post-hillarys-healthits-or

Over the weekend we posted about how the media's coverage of Trump and Clinton's health had become "outright bizarre" (see "American Electorate Loses As Partisan Media Coverage Of Candidate Health Turns Outright Bizarre"). We also asked whether Google had taken measures to censor searches related to Hillary's health condition (see "Is Google Censoring Search Results To Protect Hillary?"). Turns out that the Huffington Post may have just joined in on the bizarre behavior by censoring a journalist with the audacity to question Hillary's health.

On Sunday night, an obviously shaken Huffington Post contributor, David Seaman, posted a video to YouTube after the HuffPo had taken measures to revoke his publishing access and delete two articles he had previously published on Hillary's health...a move that left him "a little scared" and "spooked out".

According to Seaman, he has a long standing relationship with the Huffington Post which has included "100's of successful articles" that have been published under the banner.

Seaman reported the move by Huffington Post by live streaming a video of his reactions on YouTube (full video below).

"Huffington Post, where I was a contributor, they have revoked my publishing access and they've deleted both of my articles that were published earlier over the weekend. Both of my articles have been pulled without notice of any kind. Just completely deleted from the internet. And both of those articles mention Hillary's health which is both a hashtag on Twitter and I linked to a video that a YouTuber, Paul Joseph Watson, had uploaded back on August 4th showing signs that Hillary Clinton's health is quite poor."

"Whenever a video concerning a presidential candidate's health is viewed more that 3.5 million times somebody who is under contract to the Huffington Post and AOL should be able to link out to that."
Seaman goes on to point out that completely removing a published article from the internet is unprecedented and leaves him "a little scared" of being the next person to be "vanished" for criticizing the Clinton campaign.

"I've honestly never seen anything like this. This is happening in the United States in 2016. It's frankly chilling. I'm a little scared. I'm doing this video also to say, I'm not suicidal right now; I am not a particularly clumsy person; I don't own a car at the moment. So if I'm to slip in the shower over the next couple of days or something silly like that you have to really employ probability and statistics here because I'm not a clumsy person, right, and I'm also not a depressed person right now. I'm a person who is spooked out though."

"For Huffington Post to delete those posts without any notice, that is Orwellian. That is something I've read about happening in mainland China."

Fortunately, we've discovered a cached version of one of the articles published by Seaman (which can be read here). In it, Seaman questions whether his readers truly believe Hillary to be healthy noting that he can't express an opinion because he "needs to keep [his] job and platform." Seaman goes on to point out that "we all know what happens when you speak a little too much truth about the Establishment-beloved Clintons."

I realize some readers might be wondering after watching Paul Watson’s video... how is she strong, or healthy, after seeing all that?

Look guys, I need to keep my job and platform. A lot of people read the Huffington Post and AOL properties. We all know what happens when you speak a little too much truth about the Establishment-beloved Clintons.

Just ask longtime broadcaster Dr. Drew Pinsky. “CNN has canceled Drew Pinsky’s HLN show, Dr. Drew On Call, just eight days after Pinsky made comments on a radio show questioning the health of Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton. Pinsky’s show, which is six years old, will air for the last time Sept. 22,” The Daily Beast reported.
Unfortunately for Seaman, it turns out that even posing a question about Hillary's health is a little too much for the Huffington Post.

Just to confirm his story, we took the opportunity to check out Seaman's "long-standing relationship" with the Huffington Post. Certainly a quick search reveals that Seaman is a frequent contributor to the website on a variety of topics.

And sure enough, two of his posts, "Donald Trump Challenges Hillary Clinton To Health Records Duel" and "Hillary Clinton's Health Is Superb (Aside From Seizures, Lesions, Adrenaline Pens)" seem to have been deleted from the website. Clicking on those two posts redirects readers to the following "Editor's Note" indicating that "This post is no longer available on the Huffington Post."

"Surprisingly", however, the Huffington Post isn't quite as concerned about censoring Seaman's views on Canada legalizing medical marijuana...that post can still be enjoyed in its entirety.

And the "outright bizarre" behavior continues...

This country is in dangerous waters. Hooligans burn American flags, while proudly waving Mexican flags on our soil. Just attending a political rally of a presidential candidate could get you beaten and bloodied and chased through the streets-while police look on and do nothing.

if this side wins-why does any sane person think the 1st amendment will be for all speech or jsut for speech considered acceptable??

The battle is not for the 2nd but the 1st and it is going on across all areas of our nations. I hope there are some sane lefties who see where this si leading to.

The violence at the rallies is a big issue, and it is coming from both sides. I don't like any of it. Hate breeds more hate.

You can say what you like, but you cannot incite violence against another person. I also believe public and media figures have a greater responsibility toward careful and thoughtful speech. Their message sets the tone and has greater influence in what acceptable cultural norms are. Being plane spoken is fine. Leaving room to being misinterpreted as bigoted or biased against members of the nation, and supporting that further to try and justify it, is not. There are zero examples of good world leaders who fly in the face of civility and respect. None.

I hope there are some sane right wingers out there that don't fly off the handle when Clinton wins. You are very right though. It doesn't matter if Trump wins or loses as the violence and hate is now out there at extremely high levels. Neither Clinton or Trump are solutions to that. So, how are you and I going to work on it?

I'm not waving my hand at the Trump phenomenon saying it's all white supremacists under educated poor white men. It doesn't matter what make up of the vote. What matters is we need to work on some of the issues that are underlying this hate, and we do need to stamp out and crush the radical and activist portions of it that are motivated toward violence. This is no different than what is needed for ISIS.

Imagine what would happen if 10-25% of Trump's supporters riot post election. Let's say it is isolated to some cities. What's the reaction? I think it would need to be handled with kid gloves, but the Patriot Act would be pointed right at their throats. We've done this to ourselves. I cannot believe it, but it's 9-11 bred hate, with an economic disparity source.

One good terrorist act here, I think the country tears at its foundations even more. We are not ready. We are weaker now than pre 9-11. The flames of hate would consume us, and we would trade more freedoms away without blinking. You think Islam remains on the religions able to be practiced in the US in a big enough incident? How's that for an attack on the 1st?

You can burn an American flag or wear it or make dresses for your dog with it-who cares.
But when you are burning one and at the same time waving the mexican flag-that is you saying this is Mexico, it is what any army does when they capture new terriroty-since time immemorial.

Violence is coming from the left. There may be sporadic instances from the right-but the violence and hate is coming from the left and has been for a long, long time.
The hate the elft spews on any speech or action they deem not acceptable. My 1st taste was at the donald trump rally that was cancelled-vioelent thugs disrupt our free speecha nd whenw e walk peacefully back to our cars-get called nazis and all sort of hateful names. Mind you there were so many children there-but the bigots on the left were so violent an dhateful and it was scary.
The next was when I went to the trump rally it was full, so went back. Going in and out we had to pass a wall of hateful bigots calling us the worst sort of names-all families with kids, grandma with stroller. One group of what looked like college kids pointed out and asked me if trump deported me from his rally and they all burst out laughing-I am not white. Just imagine if a repub group points at a non white person and says something like that .

yet all I see is the leftie media saying trump is full of hate and he and his folloowers are causing this . At first they woudl not accept the elftie violence and now they say Trump caused this-nice. The left is full of hate and has been for a while. They are no different than the old religious groups who thought they were oh so holy and had God on their side and so killed anyone who didn't convert or disagree. Their leader Hilalry plays the same tune.

The problem is the right has had enough and is waking up to these loons and beginning to stand up-it will get ugly. After decades of being called racist, bigots every time someone has a different opinion etc-maybe they don't care anymore-and that si why the left lost their ammunition.

They're both too old to be running. How many 70 year olds do you know who could cope with the stress of that job? What about when they're 74 (72) or even 78 (76). It's enough of a strain on a middle-aged person let alone at that age.

As long as other people exist (your understanding of) reality will always be one-sided, hence your anecdote about hate and violence coming from the left: it bears on you personally, ergo it's your one-sided take on things. That's why I tell jokes about you and you tell jokes about me and they're both funny. Trying to alter the fundamental conditions of humor is a little petulant. And no, there's no invasion underway, either by Mexicans or Muslims. It's just that other people exist; they are not you, and you have to deal with it.

Absolutely wrong. reality is too big for any one person or group to grasp. it is ever changing, in flux and there are far too many constructs. What I mean by one sided, is people who have afixed view of reality and view life through that prism and always try and fit the reality of this universe through that prism. I laugh at both-people trying to justify dinosaurs and 5,000 yr supposed timeline of earth by claiming that people rode dinosaurs. The same for dems who only interpret by the dem angle.

If you are raising it to a high point on a pole or over a building, while armed, and wearing a uniform ... I could see how there could be some confusion as if it was military force or not. Typically, opposing militaries don't burn an enemy flag or symbol. They capture it. It's a trophy.

All recent instances I see are just protesters. Most recent, I think, was the backlash in San Jose. I don't particularly think their antagonizing is a good thing, but understandable.

“The people following me are very passionate.”

Maybe if he was more careful and reasonable he would incite less violence in the world? We don't need passions stirred. We don't need anger and hate. We need rational discussion and action on deep problems we face.

You think Trump is a positive force in the country?

Right. Hillary is saying go beat up people you don't agree with. Her main platform. She is the one condoning violence at her rallies. She is the one asking for strong arm authoritarianism in the country.

You don't see this as being inflicted by Trump? Guess you are learning, a lot like Trump, just what the power of words and message can be.

The funny thing about communication is it doesn't matter what you say. It matters what the other person hears. Communication is the main craft of politics and works very hard on messaging for effect. Trump understood parts of that, but not what the other side of the coin might be for him.

I'm not gleeful about the levels of hate in the country. This is actually going to be the number one issue in the country now, regardless of Trump election or not. Again, I don't think there is a politician who can unwind it to. What policies can you put in place to work against the tide of hate? Who can do that effectively? How can it be done?

Trump is absolutely the wrong answer, to this, and the other issues he is running on.

It's possible. I think it is just as likely Patriot Act and homeland security are mobilized against domestic right wing threats. Supper dark day if ever any of that occurs. I think it's easier for our new magic word, 'terrorist' to apply to one of those groups and not the other though ... unless the teachers get really militant.

Nope-the hate of the elft has been going on for long-in college campuses, in many places-where anything they don't agree with is deemed racist/bigoted/misogynist.

Trump is the 1st leader ina long time who didn't care, had enough money and decided to take this loons on.

I know violence-I have seen it in 3rd world countries and I am seeing it now in America. We are declining in many aspects-running up debt, slow growth, huge population out of the workplace and no hope.

You probably lived a very sheltered life. Got o mexico, brazil -heck go to south side of chicago and see how much they value life. Trump ain't causing this-he is fixing it. You keep saying Trump is not the answer-but never say why-becaus eyou cna't.

Trade and business is for profit-when the anton is losing massively-time to change-he understands that.

Blacks killing each other and 5 yr old kids or jihadis blowing up 100 people and themselves ahs nothing to do with trump. neither are those thugs/protestors beating up innocent people. But you can't see that-becuse that will force you to admit truths that you don't want to admit. but that si why all civilizations fall-they becoming too civilized and live in the skies and then before they can comprehend-barbarians are at the gates-but it is too late.

So he said rapists, drug smugglers are entering this nation-maybe not all-but there are plenty of criminals entering from mexico. If you are illegal and don't like what he says-go back to your country. Tough luck. But aside from that-his solution is-the law needs to be enforced.

No no no. Trump isn't espousing violence against them ... look at all the links I provided above. Who is he against? Who is suffering?

lostand confused says

Trump ain't causing this-he is fixing it.

Really? How. How is Trump going to remove the divisiveness and hate. Seriously, if he has an answer for this I'm listening. Be careful if the suggestion is homogeneity along racial or religious lines. In general that is antithetical to America.

But you can't see that-becuse that will force you to admit truths that you don't want to admit.

Yes. There is violence in the world not associated with Trump. How come so much of it has splashed on him and from him though?

lostand confused says

they becoming too civilized and live in the skies and then before they can comprehend-barbarians are at the gates-but it is too late.

I think you get to choose something. Either America's barbarians are already inside the gates, and WE ARE THEM, or you can choose to blame radical terror, immigrants, externals. I think all we have been discussing is my major case for why WE (the hate) is the issue. That's you and me, that's those anti-Trump protesters, that's the trump supporters at the rallies, that's the Trump supporter making a bomb and shouting death to Muslims.

If you cannot understand where these feelings are coming from, WE will lose.

Next terrorist attack of any significance and we will trade away the country in fear. Again, I think anything that can remotely be called domestic terror will be on the plate at that time too. All Muslim Americans will be in extreme peril as well.

So he said rapists, drug smugglers are entering ...

Sure, he has said that, and much much more. You say you don't 'understand' the violence against Trump supporters.

Do you 'understand' this type of speech?

First by understanding reality. There was a time when we were prosperous-not anymore-better than 3rd world, but not where we are.Acknowledge it thenw e can deal with it-basically look at our self-interest as a nation first-America 1st.Rew says

LOl., typical response from the left-as mentioned before. I am not white , not christian-enjoy sex with different women and not married-so there. My belief is live and let live and that includes ending drug laws. Rew says

Nah we will lose if you cannot understand where these feelings are coming from. Humans are capable of horrible things, great things. Different things can unleash different angles of the human psyche. Trump does not create them.
I think trump took on the established reality of the left and their reality is breaking down and those are dangerous times, because they are lashing out in fury trying to put Humpty Dumpty back together.

A couple of decades ago the left was right-racism, anti women rules etc were horrendous. But they have the same mindset in a very different world and trump is the one who has the guts to call them out on their stupidity on a national scale. They want to quiet him down so they can go back to their breaking constructs-but it is broken-can't do that.
