NEW ADMA ARTICLE!

[The Red Factions]

Once again, the Delegate is forced to remove this article.

It is not permissible to directly quote people, or to paraphrase direct quotes of people when they are not aware that they are being quoted. Discussions in private forums are not quotable by journalistic morals if the people are not aware they are being quoted. By ADN law, the department head of the forum must also give the OK to quote.

Numerous ADN officials, including the ADN Director, Pope Hope, have offered to give official quotes for this article, but thus far, the offer has not been taken. I would hope that the VOTP would take the Director up on her offer, and write an article following all of the laws of journalism, only quoting people when they know that what they say is to be quoted.

This is not your Delegate idly cnesoring something. I have never censored something because of its content and I never will. It is not permissible however, for our regional news source, which is broadcast to the world to do this however.

In Solidarity Comrades,

[The Red Factions]

The article has been censored for a third time, this is the final version, although very shortened


In order for you to after all get the news, The Article discussed treated the dissolution of the Alliance Defense-Meritocratic Accord.

Intensive discussions had been held at the ADN and at the Meritocracy concerning this issue and the pact has been terminated. Consul Aesculapius made a speech that ended with the following words.

In the end, it comes down to this: respect and trust. I am the Consul. I will always stand up for the Senate when I see it being disrespected. I will never, ever roll over to aggressive demands. I am more than willing to cooperate. However, until I see the Meritocracy being treated as an equal, this will not happen.

Therefore, while the AIA ( Alliance Intelligence Agency) report has recommended keeping the ADMA, I am hereby calling for a vote on the nullification of the ADMA treaty. This may not be the most popular move I will ever do, but I believe it is the right one. I still feel that our organizations can maintain a friendship, but that this treaty can no longer be expected to serve that purpose. If there is one thing that the Meritocracy must always, always preserve, it is its integrity. "
