The breaking news sidebar is a joke. Week old and 3,4 and 5 day old stories. How would we manage without the NORAD Santa Tracker still in breaking News a week later? Who is actually reading last Sundays Talk Show Thread a week later? Breaking to me means news that’s actually breaking at the moment, like this story, not week old stuff that no one is reading now.
You have a good point. I’ll ask the Admin to remove the Sunday thread after 8 days.
It is a convenience to me to have it up on Saturday in order to gather links when I prepare the new thread the next morning. Also, the other posters like to quickly find it (the previous week’s) and compare guests one week to the next, but it doesn’t need it to stay forever.
