xdvx- greenvortex, on 07/02/2008, -5/+97Yup. Same thing jumped out at me when I saw the original post. At least he only clicked on the trivial fluff articles, and not on any of the celebrity news.
- warsongs7, on 07/03/2008, -0/+15Does anyone know the link for pregnant woman falling to the asphalt from 50m up in the air?
- MacEnvy, on 07/03/2008, -2/+5Who says it was a woman? Maybe it was that pre-op pregnant dude.
- RockMKZ, on 07/03/2008, -2/+1http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/10348853/
The article.

The video.
Man that ***** is old though.
- brundlefly76, on 07/03/2008, -0/+5Any human being is easily distracted by entertainment & human interest stories when reading depressing and/or dry news. I don't 'blame' anyone for not wanting to click on the 7,000th depressing headline about Iraq.
Its CNN's fault for pandering to traffic.
Their job isnt to pander to traffic, its to be a news organization.
A news organization like CNN shouldn't try to be like digg, which is popularity-based.
I mean, I didnt see the Iraqi mass graves story get frontpaged on digg - meanwhile, 50 iPhone stories, Forbes lists, and tech comics do. - BowieX, on 07/03/2008, -0/+1http://digg.com/comedy/No_f_YOU_reader_of_reader_o ...

- MakiMaki, on 07/02/2008, -8/+227Well played. We are our own BS filters. Blaming the MSM doesn't help much.
- Dawggoneit, on 07/03/2008, -9/+1Well played. Personal hypocrisy distracts from ***** news media. National ignorance justified.
- Bilabrin, on 07/03/2008, -2/+5I think maybe you guys missed the point of the original post. It was not about blaming per se. It was about highlighting what the media is becoming. It was more of a warning than an admonishment.
- metrognome, on 07/02/2008, -3/+20I see he has no respect for the man with blue skin that just wants acceptance. Racist!
- bryanwebster, on 07/02/2008, -0/+5And I thought blacks were treated as a minority. Poor smurf man :(
- CZzyzx41, on 07/04/2008, -0/+1Well he was a Freakazoid.
- MyDiggIsBig, on 07/02/2008, -22/+71why reddit is at times > digg
http://www.reddit.com/info/6py9b/comments/- dylio, on 07/03/2008, -1/+21Their conversations seems to be on a higher level than on digg.
AT LEAST WE GOT iPHONE NEWS!- dullnation, on 07/03/2008, -2/+1Three days earlier than they did.
- iofthestorm, on 07/03/2008, -8/+16Reddit>>>>digg these days... this is just one obvious example.
- aookay, on 07/03/2008, -5/+4bah, way to jump on the bandwagon. You know, you can always go to reddit and post comments....
- cathl, on 07/03/2008, -1/+8I visit both Reddit and Digg. I wouldn't say one is better than the other, they're just different. I come to Digg if I want to be entertained, I go to Reddit for harder news.
- urbandistrict, on 07/03/2008, -1/+15I come to Digg for the interface.
- Myonosken, on 07/03/2008, -2/+3I Digg to come
- tama00, on 07/03/2008, -4/+12if reddits comment system was so unreadable i would jump ship so quick.
- carleethian, on 07/03/2008, -4/+18reddit's UI is gross
- metallikop, on 07/03/2008, -0/+11http://omfgninja.com/lolcnn.jpg
- razz8806, on 07/03/2008, -4/+2since when is "I like turtles" (one of the first comments on the reddit page) a worthy comment for an article about CNN and MSM...
i dont see at all how those comments are better than the ones here - mikesbaker, on 07/03/2008, -3/+5***** reddit and ***** you too
- Tebixan, on 07/03/2008, -0/+3Reddit is better because this was posted there a week ago. Both images were created by reddit users, and we should expect the "No f*ck BOTH of you" image to pop up here any day now, with someone bitching about how old the article is.
I still visit digg, since we usually get better gaming articles here, but reddit is usually faster with everything. Plus the comment system is actually must more user friendly once you get past the plain look of it. - Quaterni0n, on 07/03/2008, -0/+1Go back to reddit.
- dylio, on 07/03/2008, -1/+21Their conversations seems to be on a higher level than on digg.
- taters05456, on 07/03/2008, -4/+18It's so sad now that the war has become boring to us, and that celebrities and stupid fluff stories have become the important news of our time.
Now if you will excuse me, E! is on, i wanna hear what stupid thing Britney did. - UltramegaOK, on 07/03/2008, -37/+37***** it, we’ll do it live!
- iiBeLiEvE, on 07/03/2008, -0/+9You're doing it wrong.

- keviniskool, on 07/03/2008, -12/+137Let's submit this again, just for ***** and giggles.
- DeadFox1, on 07/03/2008, -0/+1yeah- do it in 2009.
- keitarofujiwara, on 07/03/2008, -0/+2whoosh
- DeadFox1, on 07/03/2008, -0/+1yeah- do it in 2009.
- chaos7, on 07/03/2008, -6/+73not more of this ***** please
- shogged, on 07/03/2008, -6/+31lol this is literally within scrolling distance of the exact same submission.
- AdmiralAcbar, on 07/03/2008, -6/+1You're a retard and clearly didn't read both submissions.
- mrjofo, on 07/04/2008, -0/+1I think he's referring to the other submission of this reply called "a reddit user replies" or similar.
- AdmiralAcbar, on 07/03/2008, -6/+1You're a retard and clearly didn't read both submissions.
- eclosis, on 07/03/2008, -7/+3wow.... OWNED. (in the worst way)
- shunterender, on 07/03/2008, -5/+4Damn. Called out.
- choopie911, on 07/03/2008, -9/+34I dont get how the ***** this is on frontpage twice within an hour or so of itself.
- sovereign3, on 07/03/2008, -1/+8Technically, they're two different submissions.
- choopie911, on 07/03/2008, -4/+2I guess pointing out a date on a page counts as a unique submission now.
- lantza, on 07/03/2008, -1/+3This submission is mocking the original submitter for NOT READING THE REAL NEWS and only clicking the tabloid-esque headlines.
- sovereign3, on 07/03/2008, -1/+8Technically, they're two different submissions.
- DynamiteMonkey, on 07/03/2008, -13/+210No, ***** you, people who keep submitting this.
- Strongo, on 07/03/2008, -15/+5No, ***** you, It's not a resubmission it's a clarification.

This was already posted oh dear- PingKing, on 07/03/2008, -0/+2I hope no one submits that picture.
- Rowan187, on 07/03/2008, -8/+1ahahaha wow, first that old as hell image (she got pregnant last summer or w/e) gets dugg up tons, and then when we think its all over you have to bring up the obvious. Yes we know that CNN is just giving the people what they want, but now you're giving Digg something that nobody really gives a ***** about.
- ace429k, on 07/03/2008, -5/+9CNN still sucks. so does the rest, NBC, CBS, ABC, FOX, etc...
- tehknotte, on 07/03/2008, -1/+1no they don't
- PingKing, on 07/03/2008, -4/+3Why didn't I think of submitting that image? Thats genius.
- dashdingo, on 07/03/2008, -11/+6http://img104.imageshack.us/img104/3440/brittanysh ...
Wow man, way to dupe a picture already on the front page. - zackinyourpants, on 07/03/2008, -3/+2Pwn'd.
- KnifeEdged, on 07/03/2008, -1/+1that was amazing! lol
- Flafan, on 07/03/2008, -5/+4Stop digging this!
- jedisushi, on 07/03/2008, -4/+3And, there it is, 8 posts below this one, with over 1000 diggs. But, hey, what the hell, funny is funny, and the community hath voted....dugg again!
- Kikinou, on 07/03/2008, -1/+5A bit of advice: the only valid source of news on television in the U.S. is the Newshour on PBS. Disregard CNN, Fox, and MSNBC and you'll be a much smarter person for it. These networks are making us stupid.
- en3r0, on 07/03/2008, -3/+1***** IT ALL!!
- lpxxfaintxx2, on 07/03/2008, -2/+78I can predict the future.

spread the ***** - morninglorii, on 07/03/2008, -0/+1If the guy who had originally made that image had been the one who posted it today, I bet he would feel like *****.

- Foenetik, on 07/03/2008, -2/+2***** off already!
- ephrils1, on 07/03/2008, -3/+1This is currently on the Front Page twice. On the main section here and "Top In All Categories" on the right.
Does everyone at Digg have amnesia? - BSeffrood, on 07/03/2008, -2/+1If any wants a front page story just submit again this for the 10,000th time today
- QuarterRican, on 07/03/2008, -1/+2Well played good sir. Well played.
- peestandingup, on 07/03/2008, -6/+1You both ***** fail because someone else in the household could have clicked on those & also the original of this was dugg months ago.
- dimsumx, on 07/03/2008, -2/+3I don't think the click history is relevant. That just mean the screenshotter read those in a previous browse. If the news of Iraq and and war funding came after the last time he browsed, of course it's not gonna show as clicked. The point of the screen was to emphasize that the main focus was Britney's sister instead of more important news.
- Jah30, on 07/03/2008, -0/+3freakin awesome. You are your own worst enemy, you choose what you watch and what you read. So, just cause it is on the news does not mean you have to watch and listen. Wake up stupid people.
- Koushiro, on 07/03/2008, -0/+3That's actually pretty funny.
- DrCyclops, on 07/03/2008, -0/+1Hey, why can't we blame both? Why does it have to be one or the other?
- jimmiss, on 07/03/2008, -1/+1You guys DO know your reporting on a flame war on another competing website right?

"Blame yourself." How about ***** you... I don't watch or websurf that *****. And if you think of it... so a few thousand diggers dugg it, and identify that the media sucks- That's nothing out of the millions who subscribe to that type of "journalism."- FishHammer, on 07/03/2008, -0/+3Calm yourself, you angry angry pokemon you
