Ok not a big surprise but here's an article where executive editor Daniel Roth is bragging about how LinkedIn successfully is censoring "fake news" and especially #pizzagate
http://www.mediaite.com/online/linkedins-daniel-roth-explains-why-you-wont-find-fake-news-on-the-social-media-site-hopefully/
"He joked about one of the most popular fake news stories in recent weeks that actually led to real life consequences: “I don’t want to jinx myself, but #pizzagate has not shown up on LinkedIn.”
“We all have sweatshirts, hoodies, that say ‘human editors’ on them,” he revealed, identifying that the more than two dozen editors around the world are responsible for “creating, cultivating and curating” content to clean up content."
Interestingly Daniel wrote an article in 2007 about Cerberus Capital and CEO Steven Feinberg

"Feinberg, who is 47, sports thinning brown hair and a wispy mustache. Without any notes, he launches into a meandering speech. Between long pauses, he wends his way through market analyses that seem deliberately vague. At the heart of his speech, he sums up the philosophy that guides his company: Reveal as little as necessary; be anonymous; be invisible. “We try to hide religiously,” he says. “If anyone at Cerberus has his picture in the paper and a picture of his apartment, we will do more than fire that person. We will kill him. The jail sentence will be worth it.” There are a few nervous laughs."
Well, maybe Daniel and his "human editors" should read up on Cerberus, Feinberg and DynCorp before disregarding #pizzagate
Great post here: https://voat.co/v/pizzagate/1571056

I wouldn't really call that a news article. More an opinion piece, apparently calling on progressives to "fight back", but I have no idea what they're supposed to fight back against. Media hatred? I only see progressives fighting back by creating objective media to replace what exists. A shame that a utilitarian website is now being turned into a political soapbox, regardless of the way Roth seems to dismiss that fact.

I guess LinkedIn is... not save for work.

LinkedIn is a social media site for people trying to find jobs. Why would there ever be an article about pizzagate on such a site? What exactly are you thinking is being censored?

I posted about Pizzagate on linkedIn in October and the very next day a DEA agent in Columbia viewed my profile. After watching George Webb's videos It makes sense now. I carry a 9mm with me 24/7 now. i'm sure i'm a nobody but at least I have protection if I need it.
