I saw an interesting article, but it was on a Gawker satellite site…

But not nearly as hard as Hogan will.
And ain’t that a shame.
Heh. I feel dirty, but I still check out i09 about once a day or so. It may be filled with left wing claptrap, but they still have an interesting article every so often.
I agree. Screw ’em. I drew the line at PuffHo years ago, these bozos are worse.
Purged Kotaku and Jalopnik from my rotation. I only visited iO9 from links, so I didn’t have to do anything in particular. Haven’t noticed a great loss.
Is there a handy reference of sites to not visit? I mean, I could limit myself to MoeLane and Slashdot, but ..

You can go where you like; but if we don’t punish Gawker sites for being Gawker sites then they’ll just keep being Gawker sites. 🙂
This isn’t some stealth objection to the tactic, I’d prefer not to hand links to [redacted] like Gawker, but .. I suck at figuring out who owns what…

So .. from this thread, I’ll be avoiding Jalopnik (which was, back in its’ heyday, readable ..haven’t visited in a long while) and Kotaku (never heard of it) and IO9 (never heard of it either) and … ?
