1. When it's good, it's very, very good. |
|
When it's bad, it's performing analinctus on repukes in public, and that never elevates the discussion of the general civic intelligence.

7. They smack of concern troll to me |
|
And I have this feeling they were given a boost from an unseen source, aka the US Gov. I think they wanted a nets-rootsie deal they could manipulate.

9. It's a right of center conventional news organization marketing itself as cool |
|
They definitely support the establishment and they're very well connected, having used their personal friendships in the established media circles to market themselves as a sort hip, 21st century Newsweek. But overall they're just boring status quo types without a lot of new things to say.

10. At this point I see them as primarily a corporate media promoted Internet Site. |

The corporate media know their approval ratings are in the crapper, so they use an Internet Site to promote their agenda instead.
