4. Does anyone else here find this obsession with 'voting' for horrible... |
|
...news incredibly disturbing? As if giving news about murder and mayhem a 'high score' will improve the world. That's just how Gandhi and MLK would do it if they were alive today.

9. It's not "voting for" the story... |

...Yahoo uses the ratings to determine where the story shows up on the News page. Freepers have been finding these stories about deaths in Iraq and voting "1" in order to bump them down so people won't see them.
