News being hidden? ISP disconnects me when i link to sensitive AP story
HI,
Is the Grand Conspiracy Elders of the Planet trying to hide this news story, or is it a glitch?
===========================
My isp totally disconnects me when i try to reach this AP story two ways:
1, via the link paupau put in his post ... find his post by linking below:
===================
Democratic Underground Forums - Extra lifespan of New York's Rich over poor reduced under Clinton

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=102x690524
==========================
2.} I also went to the AP site, found the story by putting "poor" in the search box, then looking about twenty stories down in the list.

I clicked on the title,, and wham, lost my isp connection totally.

What is going on here?
Thanks to all who help.

4. This is what I got
"Extra lifespan of New York's Rich over poor reduced under Clinton (title and story corrected for AP errors)

NEW YORK (AP) -- Life expectancy in the city's poorest neighborhoods was eight years shorter than in its wealthiest neighborhoods in 2001,down from 10 years shorter in 1990, according to a new report by the health department.

New Yorkers in the city's lowest income neighborhoods had a life expectancy of 74.5 years, compared with 81.1 years in the highest income neighborhoods, the study found. The average life expectancy in the United States is 77.2 years.

The report said New Yorkers living in neighborhoods in the south Bronx, east and central Harlem and north and central Brooklyn - where more than one in three residents live in poverty - were more suffer from health problems than those in wealthy neighborhoods.

Those in the poorest neighborhoods were four times more likely to report poor health overall and three times as likely to die from diabetes as those in the wealthiest neighborhoods, according to the report released Thursday."

5. is it a long page?
still crashes and disconnects.
But this time i got to see the FLa. newspaper page's edges as the rest was waiting to cascade in. then , disconnect.

I suspect it might just be a long page, which can do this , tho very very rarely. Once per year.

How long is the page when you folks see it? Is the reply above this the full story at the AP/Fla site? Wanted to see more that papau had pasted, if there is more.
Thanks all
