I don't know about VOX you may be right, but I see the whole "someone should fix this" comment as "someone in news should fix this". If someone says someone should fix a broken app I assume they are saying a developer should fix it. You can read something else into it and that's fine too.
The whole listicle thing is a total pet peeve of mine and I hate seeing that crap on FB. I am also very disappointed in the crappy newsless entertainment network that CNN has turned into - another pet peeve. It has been Nancy-Gracified. I think much of the CNN thing can really be traced back to the OJ chase and addiction to the trial. Since then it's been one trial after another. Only one thing in the world is ever happening on CNN, and if Nancy Grace has anything to do with it - it usually involves a dead or missing white girl. I am glad to see that at least the missing Mylasian flight is finally no longer "breaking news" on CNN.com after 2+ months. -Cameron On Fri, Jun 6, 2014 at 2:02 PM, Judah McAuley wrote: > > I get his general gist and I like that he calls out Vice for the good > things they are doing.
