10. The new lean, mean comments section of Huffpo

I myself have stopped posting at the site after they began holding up my posts due to the "sensitive" (or some such tripe) nature of the article. I do not use profanity nor am I given to insulting people's mother's sexual behaviors. Perhaps it's just the bugs in procedure for Huffington's publicized attempt to make the comments section more civil, but as you can see from the comments on this article, the political complexion seems more, balanced, than it was when most of the comments were of a liberal nature.
Perhaps America has become more conservative since AOL bought Huffpo? Ariana always seemed somewhat confused swinging as she did from a protege of Newt to one of Jon Stewarts.
Folks should take care to rely more on independent media sites. Like the man sang, "Dont follow leaders, watch your parking meters."
