Verizon is launching a tech news site that bans stories on U.S. spying or net neutrality

(Daily Dot): http://www.dailydot.com/politics/verizon-sugarstring-us-surveillance-net-neutrality/

   "There's just one catch: In exchange for the major corporate backing,
    tech reporters at SugarString are expressly forbidden from writing
    about American spying or net neutrality around the world, two of the
    biggest issues in tech and politics today.  Unsurprisingly, Verizon is
    deeply tangled up in both controversies."
