I was browsing digg.com and notice something truly weird. They had a story with the following title
Obama's Arrogance - Voters Will Not Care About Unemployment Come Election Day
I click on it to read it but when I go back to Digg, it was gone from Frontpage. Did they not like "Obama's arrogance" part?? Why not just edit the title instead of removing it completely? I took print screen, so you guys decide -
