They switched from ESPN screen names to Facebook in the hopes that they could dox anyone that got out of line. Apparently that wasn't enough.

A lot of media outlets do that now, Tbh. They know people skip the article to read headlines and trash on them.

Deadspin is owned by telemundo and it’s apparently going out of business. Deadspin is run by very offended sjw’s.

Nuffin. But they think they have a lot of sanctimonious people in power.

Yup. As evidenced by that snowflake headline about being offended by the thoughts of the masses.

That's the direction of all these corporate outlets. They're hoping if they can cut off communication, it'll help them to avoid resistance in the pursuit of new norms. The irony.

What idiotic overthinking. If you're handling the business, you're not worried about the peanut gallery.

Fox news for some reason only has comments under half their articles. Kind of annoying

All news websites should not have comment sections with articles. What a useless pile of shit those are to read.

Pretty much. On most of them you get dipshits posting memes and derping their arguments by regurgitating erroneous arguments. Then you get the trolls who don't offer anything. You might get 1 or 2 conscientious thread that pertain to the article, but that's if you're lucky.
