both of those cut out reader comments.

So I stopped reading them. And, I make it a point never to buy anything advertised on them when by chance I go there. I have an ad blocker anyway...

It bothers me, as well, that all the big corporate news networks - ABC, NBC, CBS, CNN, have essentially cut out any email or other avenues for people to give them feedback.

I guess they don't want no feedback! That golden bull idol on Wall Street be HUNGRY for shareholder profits! Truth doesn't matter. Everyone knows that!

I stopped taking the Denver Post because I got flagged and NONE of my comments were published. Too much truth I guess...and you absolutely CANNOT get to any editor to give them feedback at all. Just 'news tips.'

One of the things I like about the NYT is I can still comment on articles, at least some of them. If they cut that off, I very well might cut them off and cancel my subscription. I LIKE to comment on news articles. Silly me, with this sad penchant for truth!
