You did a good job. Even with a paid moderator it would be hard to flag ever dang line.

If Bill O’Reilly’s site has a discussion forum, he could easy get some trolls.

Excellent point! I bet if someone were to dig around his site, some examples of "hate" could be found (if he even has a discussion forum).

Exactly why he would not. The kosKiddies and DUmmies would inundate his site with nastiness.

FR is not that scared. We have checks and balances.

Zots and Viking Kitties assist the poor Mods who are, at some times, asleep at the wheel.

He does and he has.

And in some cases, it is worth leaving stupid but otherwise mildly disparaging remarks just as posted so that readers can make up their minds about the poster. An overly-moderated forum can provide too much cover for the borderline nut cases. Intelligent readers can separate out the wheat from the chaff.
