I was furious after learning you guys had this Ted Williams video taken down. It wasnt your stupid little newspaper that got him world wide attention, it was the youtube video and this was the link that everyone has already been posting. How dare you guys steal his 15 minutes of fame in hopes of getting more page views to your site or ad revenue. I hope whoever made this decision realizes they are beyond idiotic. This link was e-mailed to all my friends and family, posted on my facebook and a bunch of my friends were posting it too, I saw it on all my message boards I visit, on news sites, etc... now it just goes to a dead link and the world will slowly forget about Ted Williams. This video could have been an all time youtube viral hit. Sad sad people you guys are, its profits before people for you guys though I guess.

Sent them a similar email. It's amazing how incompetent some people really are.

That video would hit one hundred million views this year.
