1. Many of us don't have facebook accounts.

And won't create them just to read one article.

3. Yeah, you are welcome to play in your walled garden. Most here prefer public parks for their information. . . . nt

16. Um... what?

My political facebook feed gives me all the links I also get through DU. Facebook is a tool like anything else, and it's not necessarily a walled garden compared to a public park due to it's global reach. Also, what public park are you speaking of? WaPo? Paywalled. NYT? Paywalled. Google? Can give you a million results and still not give you the right one.

I'm not a facebook apologist, but I don't think we need to social media sham each other, either.

6. Is that supposed to be a useful comment or just schoolyard banter?

I find it a bit strange coming from you.

5. I was asked to provide a login. Malaise, are you a fb member? If so your credentials are in the cookies.

12. Just click the X linked to that

I have never joined FB and read stuff and watch linked videos all the time, including this excellent one.

8. I have never had a Facebook account and I could view/hear the posted video just find. Just click the 'X' on the login.

10. Thanks. That did work.

Normally I do that (try to close out the login dialog box). Guess I thought it was a requirement this time.
