Why was the post about the bbc presenter shut down?

[Wish]

Can’t see any reason why it was closed …..

Over the top moderation strikes again….

We are big girls and boys…. If someone over stepped the mark then moderate the post not the topic ?

Possible defamation or libel for PH due to people posting names and speculating.

The comments section if the Daily Mail is open for those who would like to discuss the topic I’m sure.

The thread was moved to the mods forum for review.
It is now back in N,P&E
I posted this in the thread, so please take note:

I have spent some time trying to cleanse the thread of potentially libellous posts.
(Apologies if anyone had a post removed which they don’t think was libellous)

Please do not post any hints, clues, initials or any other suggestion as to the identity of the BBC person.
The individual will be officially named in due course, let’s not spoil the surprise.

I am not going to spend more of my time cleansing this thread, so if the naming or hinting continues the thread will be removed completely.
TYIA.
