I would pm Admin for an explanation but I would guess it was because it was alleging something that was not proven in a court, say, so possibly libelous. I know the newspaper chose to print it but they probably have better lawyers and bigger coffers than Admin ;)
All questions on the moderation of the forum should be directed to the Mod for that forum or Admin 'Off Forum' please. For reference, the laws of libel apply to the internet and you would be well advised to remember this when posting.
