"...but they are not properly educated in the ethics of journalism and democratic political theory..."

i don't know any advocate of Indymedia who doesn't rave about it as some sort of source of radicalism. The concept of disappearing articles is quite different than how Indymedia is perceived by a lot of people.

So, if you think people are going to accept the idea that these IMC editors simply don't know not to censor--well, keep on trying. See how far it goes!
