Re: Palestinian bloggers protest Daily Kos (4.00 / 2)
To be fair, posting "newsflashes" like this as comments to his diaries was found to be a workable way to allow shergald to give a higher profile to news items than he believes that they would get in the Salon while not spamming the recent diary list with cut-and-paste jobs (I personally doubt they actually get more readers here than in the Salon, but that was the feeling he expressed at the time). I still think it's a workable solution. But then, I never had much of a problem with threads going off topic in the first place...

Re. Salon. Salon is about 50 times larger than ET and just for reference, Daily Kos is about 250 times larger in its lull moments. During elections, Daily Kos has had as many as 2 million daily visitors.

This diary about the banning of Tom J was actually about a great loss of publicity concerning the Palestinian plight. And that is why it was posted.

Not Salon the web site. The Salon on ET. The yellow-themed thread on the front page.

I wasn't disagreeing with that.
