Do you notice all the readers who have shown up in droves to tell you they think (rightfully so) that Salon has been blinded by their devotion to the lesser candidate, Clinton? That the articles reflect a pro-Clinton bend and that we are being talked down to?
Picture this. Imagine that Clinton does win the primaries due to negative campaigning, which we will perceive as being partially reflected in your journalism. We will leave Salon in droves, I can promise you that. My enthusiasm for Salon has been on again, off again, but I came here on the hope that this place would be different from other news organizations, that you were interested in promoting the truth. If you can't do that I have a lot of other options that I'd like to pursue.
I think this article was okay. Madden at least found people to quote on the issue. He found real people to reflect upon and some reality based journalism, not the high-flying, sadistic speculation that Lind wrote.
