I used to love this site called Newsvine, because it had a lot of people who differed greatly in opinion, but were very civil.
But, than it was directly attached to MSNBC after it got bought out, and soon enough, each article had 300+ YouTube-quality comments and every article, no matter the topic, was just vicious political crap.
There's an obvious desire to expand audiences, especially when money is involved, but that's a pretty easy way to destroy the community if you do it wrong.
