→‎Bribery: Doesn't match
Line 24: Line 24:  
::: The main definition of "bribe", according to my dictionary, is "any valuable consideration given or promised for ''corrupt behaviour'' in the performance of any official or public duty" (my emphasis), and this is what use of the word here would suggest.  Yet there is no basis for putting that in the article, beyond a non-notable blog.  Therefore, it should not go in, full stop.  What ''could'' go in is a mention along the lines that the producers of the movie are encouraging schools to take their students to see it, but I don't really think that's of sufficient relevance to warrant a mention.  [[User:Philip J.

::::It seems to match the definition given perfectly. What's your problem, then? [[User:Barikada|Barikada]] 21:21, 6 March 2008 (EST)

::::: My problem is that it ''doesn't' match the definition, unless you have an odd definition of "corrupt behaviour".  [[User:Philip J. Rayment|Philip J. Rayment]] 08:01, 7 March 2008 (EST)
    
Subsidizing the exposure of censorship seems to be what you oppose. Sounds like you're only against "bribery" when it opposes your cause.
