Le guardie giurate dei commenti
Il Boston Globe ha affidato a una società esterna la moderazione dei commenti sul suo sito. Tra le altre norme generali applicate ci sono le seguenti:
- “As a rule, we permanently disable comments on all stories about people who have experienced a personal tragedy, as well as all obituaries.”
- “We also temporarily disable comments overnight for stories about immigration, religion, and religious figures. Commenting on these stories should be enabled at 7 a.m., and the stories should be given extra attention throughout the day so that we can move quickly if the comments degenerate.”
- “Obscene text and profanities are not allowed. Remove comments that have harsh profanities, but it’s OK to leave those that are less offensive: ‘jerk,’ ‘stupid,’ ‘crap,’ ‘idiot,’ etc.”
