I like the site. And what's your point really? That it's wrong or somehow strange to submit content from sites you like? (see comment)

CNN & NBC News Bosses Criticize GOP Attacks on Media

Comment in News (0 diggs, 0 replies) - on 09/05/2008 - by Maki
It's a tricky topic because the interpretation of news frames is highly subjective. Like I said, Ridgeliner quoted a study and we all know academic studies depend on their sample size and methodology. There is no clear cut scale for weighing media bias. L … (see comment)

Hey Ridgeliner7, Since you directed the question to me, I'll offer my thoughts. Media bias is a tricky topic. Here's a link about a recent study that I can recall: see comment)

"First, you can't say that you aren't submitting the most political stories. You are the top submitter on Digg, and even if you aren't submitting what you consider to be a lot of political stories" Yes, I can say that. It's a fact that I'm not submitting … (see comment)

"I would have nothing against you personally if you didn't submit stories from those sites daily. However, when I browse through my RSS bookmark and see 10 anti-McCain stories from Huffington Post, Think Progress, Daily Kos, etc., it gets to the point whe … (see comment)

Why the Media Should Apologize for Writing About Sarah Palin

Comment in News (0 diggs, 0 replies) - on 09/05/2008 - by Maki
I would disagree. Some of the content IS news, just more opinionated and less objective. It also deals with the 08 Elections so its placed there. Look carefully and you'll notice that I'm not the only one doing this. And notice that politics is only a sma … (see comment)

Wow. I see you left yet another personal attack that's completely irrelevant to the story. Looks like you really got a hard-on for me. Why don't you just leave me the fuck alone? Hate the story, bury it and move on. Harassing users is against TOS. Burie … (see comment)

@repin I'm not the only one submitting pro-Obama content. Even then, politics is only a small part of what I do. You're probably one of the conservatives who love to troll my submissions and diss me for no reason at all. See my comment history, I've had … (see comment)

Is it Wrong for Doctors to Sleep with their Patients?

Comment in News (29 diggs, 3 replies) - on 09/01/2008 - by Maki
Doctors are humans too.. I guess it wouldn't be that bad an idea unless the lack of objectivity harms the treatment. This is much more of a problem with the doctor is a psychiatrist, although problems can arise in other vocations too. (see comment)

Obama on Palin Pregnancy Stories: Knock It Off

Comment in News (24 diggs, 2 replies) - on 09/01/2008 - by Maki
Obama is a class act. Personally, I thought the rumors about Palin were kinda slimy. While I appreciate investigative journalism, some of the speculations out there seemed to be backed by venomous intent. It's not necessary to go to that extent when addre … (see comment)

This is getting retarded. Of course I don't have sockpuppets. Digg would have banned my ass a long time ago if I did. You underestimate how smart they are at detecting shit like that. If you don't have proof, don't try to use false accusations to weaken s … (see comment)
