Through ignorance, through weakness, through its own deliberate fault...?

Interestingly enough, though, Blacketer wasn't the one who removed the
"consistency" comment – he was the one who added it in the first place.

The DM allege that he "tried to remove a reference to the Tories having a
'consistent' lead in the polls." In actual fact, he merely replaced it with
a more relevant one – and you'll never guess which news outlet it was that
he cited.

Make what you will of Blacketer's account juggling, but to my mind there
isn't even a case for arguing non-neutral editing here. To borrow WP:COI, I
can hardly see that advancing outside interests was more important than
advancing the aims of Wikipedia in this case.

But hey, caveat lector, right..?
