1. When it's good, it's very, very good.
When it's bad, it's performing analinctus on repukes in public, and that never elevates the discussion of the general civic intelligence.

7. They smack of concern troll to me
And I have this feeling they were given a boost from an unseen source, aka the US Gov. I think they wanted a nets-rootsie deal they could manipulate.

9. It's a right of center conventional news organization marketing itself as cool
They definitely support the establishment and they're very well connected, having used their personal friendships in the established media circles to market themselves as a sort hip, 21st century Newsweek. But overall they're just boring status quo types without a lot of new things to say.

10. At this point I see them as primarily a corporate media promoted Internet Site.
Edited on Wed Nov-26-08 02:08 PM by Uncle Joe
The corporate media know their approval ratings are in the crapper, so they use an Internet Site to promote their agenda instead.
