Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee yanks job policy from website
Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee yanks job policy from website
http://pageoneq.com/news/2006/dcccpol_141906.html

Washington, DC - Less than twenty-four hours after an inquiry by PageOneQ about the lack of sexual orientation in the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee's (DCCC) non-discrimination hiring policy, the organization removed all job listings and the policy from its website.

....

Bill Burton, a spokesman for the DCCC said that the policy included sexual orientation and that its absence on the website was an error. A return visit to the website revealed that the policy had not been corrected, but completely removed.

3. It's the little fuckups like this that hurt us most -
because it's the first thing the neocons will jump on. And Rove is now "handling" elections.

Non- story if you ask me. Someone inquired, and they changed it.
Perhaps you should change your article.

6. Lock
Since the opening post is outdated, and the site now has the language that was said to be missing, this is not breaking news.
