It is fairly common for right-wing Web sites to cherry-pick the most extreme or outlandish posts from our forum in order to paint all liberals as wacky or extreme.

Look, David! I'm doing it right now!

Our discussion forum is different from a traditional blog. We get approximately 25,000 messages posted each day, and we cannot possibly check them all for accuracy.

Except for the fact that this particular nugget of nonsense was hardly a rare sentiment about the tsunamis.

Man! The earthquakes around the Great War and WWII must have been horrific. I wonder why we've never heard of them?

I doubt they get that many postings in a day. Perhaps when the election was fever pitched, but most of the bozos don't get out of bed until 10 and are smoking pot by 2. 25000 doesn't seem feasible. Bunch of whiners.

Frankly, I agree with the letter.

Whether FR or DU, one would think that a "News" organization would have better things to do than troll blogs for stupid statements and make them into stories.
