Poor Cllr Harte - some people just don't get the internet. Following some (presumably unkind) comments from two frequent posters on politics.ie, Harte got in touch with site's owner, David Cochrane. Cochrane stuck up the following notice:
David Cochrane:
As a result, effective immediately, all visitors and users of Politics.ie are asked not to discuss or mention Cllr Jimmy Harte, nor is any coverage anywhere of his election campaign allowed to be discussed or promoted.As of tomorrow his name will be a banned word on Politics.ie and all references furthermore to him will be removed.
Of course, this means that many people, who didn't know or care what 'Mccafferty cat' and 'polito123' had to say about the Donegal Pol, are now intensely interested. And Jimmy looks like a fool for trying to censor the internet. Cochrane is too smart not to know this so, rather than capitulation to an odious bully, I'd like to see his notice as a fine act of passive agsression.
