they have also scared away those of us who care about good reporting and all that.

I had a classic weird conversation today with one of these folks who obviously is not a HRC supporter, but is damn tired with the non issues about the emails and uses corporate media to debunk corpo media.

Part that really made me scratch my head...she is relying on DIGBY who I doubt has read one of the emails in question, but is accusing me of taking the corporate line after I told her I read the emails.

It is bizarre.... almost worthy of writing an article.
