STATED PURPOSE AND GOALS
This web site was hatched from a group of bookmarked "Favorites" that was started on my WebTV unit, which later grew far too big and complicated for my home computer.Today, MusicPortal.com operates out of the simple purpose of providing fans of all different styles of music throughout the world with a cost-free, one-click web portal to connect with thousands of artists and their music. The primary goal of this web site is to give musical artists at all levels of popularity an equal footing for some newly found exposure to potential fans throughout the world. CENSORSHIP AND FREEDOM OF SPEECH
As a third generation American, one of the things I value most of all is my personal right to freedom of speech, along with the relative assurance that the bulk of whatever I say will not be censored by the government.Consequently, there is no intentional censorship on this web site. You will find no "PARENTAL ADVISORY" warnings of any sort here. The only artists that have purposely been screened off MusicPortal.com are those who would be considered to be espousing overt racial hatred and/or the endorsement of committing racial violence against a specified group of others via their music. To put it simply, the international artist has the edge on this website with regard to freedom of speech and the individual right by default (of being listed in our artist directory) not to be censored like they may be in their home country. As a user, if you find yourself offended by some of the things you may see or hear on some of the web sites linked to from MusicPortal.com, please accept the advice to simply "change the channel," because WE DO NOT ENDORSE CENSORSHIP. - Michael Bennett, webmaster/publisher. |
