Default No negative comments towards sponsors?

I'm writing this post in reference to a post on this site yesterday that was shutdown because of negative feedback towards a site sponsor.

I realize that Casey owns this site and as much as we like to think we are share holders, we aren't. Therefore, this site can be run anyway the owner likes, and I understand that it's not good for business to bash the sponsors because of that whole "bite the hand that feeds you" concept.

However, I didn't find the poster to be "bashing" as much as stating an opinion possibly fact.
My question is will sponsors interests always be above the other members as long as they are paying this site money? What if they operate nefariously and to the detriment of the rest of the members on this site? Members, some like myself, who pay money for a premium membership that do not want to spend their hard earned money on an inferior product.

If I went to your accounting firm, paid you, and let you know about my Ponzi scheme, should I be protected because I was paying your firm?

Not griping, just curious where the line is of sponsor interest vs. good of the salty community?
