Reply To: Comment-free YWN

You all addressed only the first point, if poorly. The second point remains, and is anyhow the main point. The reason I say that your responses do not address even the first point very adequately is that someone who is leisurely perusing the news will not be focusing on not looking at the comments. Arguing on this point is denying the basic premise on which the entire advertising industry is established.

The reason I say that the second point (and I’m not convinced that anyone in the c.r. can relate to this point, but I am sure that it resonates with many of the general news readership) was not addressed is, we don’t want to put ourselves or our children in a situation where we need to exercise control.

Arguing with this point is denying the basic premise on which this website was established.
