Remove the crap comments

First off, you should have someone periodically go through and remove the crappola comments like the two obvious ones here. 99% of the time the comments are great at WPN, then you get idiot responses like that.

I think its good to see that change with large News media linking out. Wait until they actually figure out what nofollow its!

The problem I find is that there is still an elitist linking system, for example, they would rarely link to the source of an event, only to the media agency covering the story.

The bad with linking out

The reason certain sites don't link out is because you really cannot control the content of the other site. Imagine if CNN linked out to another site that suddenly changed or added content that was very offensive. Can someone say "lawsuit"?

Linking out to other sites, especially on main pages can be a very dangerous practice as it's so unpredictable. Thanks, Osagie Irowa
