As well, it appears to refer to "real-world" bullying is the real problem:

To me, it sounds like the bill is defining cyberbullying as something that happens in addition to "real-world" bullying. I think it would be pretty rare for bullying to occur only online, and I'm not counting anonymous forum drama.

Some things are just too evil to put in the same sentence. We're talking resonance cascade here.

Yes, future generations must know about the horrors visited upon us by the millions of tubgirl and lolcats clones which populated Geocities. Those who forget history are doomed to repeat it.

You're right. However, they managed to get 3,000 subscribers, which means at $5 per month each they can now afford to pay a full-time newsroom staff of five people, on top of whatever the advertising pays for. Not too shabby.

The Pegasus News manages to cover the entire Dallas-Fort Worth area with a total staff of 19 people.

The Tyee is not a news site. It is not "good journalism." It is an opinion site. They write stories with very clear opinionated slants. And people who agree with that slant gravitate to the site and call it "good journalism."

Their election "coverage" is nothing more than them asking for money to cover the election from the slant their readers want. Read their appeal again.

From your link:

This is no different than a consortium of advertisers requesting a newspaper cover an election issue from a particular point of view. This is the same old thing, just more obvious.

This shows me people don't want news that tries to be objective as possible, they want to read something that agrees with their opinions.

You deserve some modding up.

The Internet these days is one big Ponzi scheme / information mining operation.

All I know is my gut says "maybe."

First screening impressions sometimes don't mean anything.

I would like to piggy-back on your comment suggesting early reviews were coloured by the excitement (which is probably bang-on) and point out that in the theatre where I watched the first screening of Star Wars: Episode I, there was a standing ovation after the movie was over.

Later I realized there was a standing ovation BECAUSE the movie was over.

Yeah, we should start a support group. For me that describes this sadistic shitpile of a game which thankfully my dad and I found used for $20 so the pain wasn't too terrible.
