I made a comment in a thread the other week suggesting that Wired's UK editor was hurting his ability to cover Facebook by not using the service, and it was downvoted, and I couldn't figure out why: http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=1726192 http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=1726192 Granted, it was a little bombastic and was written in a sarcastic way, but there was a good point in there and it was actually upvoted significantly before someone else made a response criticizing what I said. I didn't understand why it was downvoted. As someone in the journalism field, I found it to be surprising that he could continue to make good points in articles about Facebook without using the service.
