+790 comments ... and unlike here, they had to do journalism (in this case, polling their readers) to generate the content with the comments on it. We just get to kibbitz on someone else's reporting. It's what this site's for. Hm... Now that I think about it... This is a link aggregator that doesn't run ads. It loads faster than the news sites it links out to, and comments happen over here instead of over there. Is HN part of the problem? Do sites like this pull the online advertising revenue out of journalism that journalism needs to survive?
