Daily Reveille, lsureveille.com comment policy

The Daily Reveille provides the comment option on all columns and articles to provide a venue for input and discussion from its readers. We hold ourselves to the highest standard, and we approve all comments unless limited by the following guidelines.

Inordinately long
Posts can be no longer than 250 words.

No outside links
Posts that have links to outside Web sites will not be approved.

Obscene, racist or strongly prejudiced language
No obscene, racist or strongly prejudiced language will be permitted. The editor and managing editor have the authority to deem what words are "inappropriate" for the Web site. 

Obviously incorrect
No assertions of fact that are obviously incorrect will be approved. This is different than commentary. For example: The judge robbed a bank last week would not be approved if it wasn't true. The judge is a crook would be approved.

Threatening language
Any posts that threaten or could be considered threatening to anyone will not be approved. Also, any posts that specifically target a reporter or another poster will not be approved.

Libelous material
Any material that classifies as libelous will not be posted.

Duplicate posts
Do not submit duplicate posts. The same comment will only be posted once, and the duplicates will be deleted. Duplicate posts also slow down the approval process and will likely delay the posting of a comment.

Discretion of editor
The editor-in-chief and managing editor have the final say of what is appropriate for lsureveille.com.
