In fall 2010 Wikipedia repeatedly removed information from verified sources that NH Senator Kelly Ayotte believes she and the GOP may threaten to arrest reporters they don't like when they hold publicly-advertised rallies on commercial property that is subject to State and Local permitting and regulation. KingCast.net (websites owned and operated by a former reporter for the Indianapolis Star and other publications) sued Kelly Ayotte, the GOP and Nashua Police for Free Press and Racial Discrimination violations. When the poster jumped through all of the hoops, finally quoting directly from a secondary source that is the second-largest newspaper in New Hampshire -- according to Wiki no less -- they again removed the content and stated that there was no proof that Kelly Ayotte knew of the policy or the lawsuit and therefore it couldn't be attributed to her stance on the issue of Free Press.... DUH!

The newspaper article clearly notes that Christopher King "KingCast.net" was escorted out by the police at a GOP/Joe Arpaio rally after he attempted to speak to Kelly Ayotte:http://www.nashuatelegraph.com/news/887281-196/blogger-sues-ayotte-others-over-access.html
