It does make me glad that I host my own blog instead of being at the whim of Google.<\/p>\n<p class=\"blog\">\n<p class=\"blog\">Not long ago there was a concerted effort<br \/>\nto take down pro-Hillary blogs likely from Obama supporters and this<br \/>\nhas also been happening to other conservative blogs.<\/p>\n<p class=\"blog\">I was always rather dubious of the Flag<br \/>\nBlog button at the top of blogspot blogs and was a reply to the<br \/>\nspammers who poison everything. Though in this case Google treats you<br \/>\nas guilty until proven innocent. &nbsp;Some bloggers who suffered<br \/>\nthis problem moved to wordpress.com.<\/p>\n<p class=\"blog\">Hopefully this will be resolved soon.<\/p>\n<p class=\"blog\">Update: Nice to find out that this was just a glitch that happened throughout blogspot blogs.  Sometimes it is too easy to jump to conclusions.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>When Jean at Catholic Fire emailed me today that her blog had been marked as spam I didn&#8217;t realize how widespread this was. &nbsp;The Anchoress reports that the same thing&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[16],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-2492","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.splendoroftruth.com\/curtjester\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2492","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.splendoroftruth.com\/curtjester\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.splendoroftruth.com\/curtjester\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.splendoroftruth.com\/curtjester\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.splendoroftruth.com\/curtjester\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2492"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.splendoroftruth.com\/curtjester\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2492\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.splendoroftruth.com\/curtjester\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2492"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.splendoroftruth.com\/curtjester\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2492"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.splendoroftruth.com\/curtjester\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2492"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
