Another one bites the dust.

Huffington Post contributor David Seaman was abruptly terminated by the online magazine for posting a video on Sunday that questions the health of Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton.
The post contained an embed of a popular video by InfoWars editor Paul Joseph Watson which addresses Clinton’s “bizarre behavior” and has been seen by millions. Seaman used the video to ponder the veracity of the Clinton slogan claim, “Stronger Together.”
“How strong?” he asked.
But after mere hours of the article’s publication, HuffPo removed it from the site without warning. It was later when Seaman tried to log back into his account that he realized his credentials to get into the site had been revoked. He published a video response forewarning viewers to be suspicious if he ends up slipping in the shower in the coming weeks:
In the video, Seaman remarks how “spooky” the whole situation is:
“It was a very newsworthy thing for me to link out to, people are talking about, that hashtag has been quite popular, and whenever a video concerning a presidential candidate’s health is viewed more than 3.5 million times, somebody who is under contract with The Huffington Post and to AOL should be able to link out to that… without having their account revoked without any notice... late on a Sunday night."I’ve filed hundreds of stories over the years as a journalist and I’ve never had anything like this happen….I’ve never experienced this… this is extremely spooky.”
Oddly enough, Seaman wrote in his now-deleted post (cached here) about another recent casualty of the liberal media, Dr. Drew Pinsky, who was suddenly fired by CNN just days after he commented on Clinton’s health. Seaman foresaw a similar fate:
Look guys, I need to keep my job and platform. A lot of people read the Huffington Post and AOL properties. We all know what happens when you speak a little too much truth about the Establishment-beloved Clintons.
It is also being reported that a second article on Clinton’s health written by Seaman has been deleted from HuffPo:
The writer also posted screenshots to Twitter on Sunday evening as he discovered he was fired:
And then Seaman reminded his followers of additional hypocrisy inside The Huffington Post:
As did Watson himself, who points out that articles on Donald Trump's health are always welcome:
