Furthermore, if anyone posts them, they should be deleted by the mods.

Who's with me?

2. YES. I keep hitting alert and asking for them to be combined.
Don't check back to see if it happens, but feel free to join me so it is not just "oh it's uppity again whining about multiple threads on the same subject".

4. I wholeheartedly agree
It's between her and her family, and it's nobody else's business.

6. The problem is the links are always moved and people don't see it.
Then when they do it surprises the shit out of them and they post it again. Many people believe that the DU LBN is damn inclusive of the news about people and things we care about.

9. I don't see the point.
We're not the ones exploiting the situation, we're the ones attempting to find ways to counter the speculations. Since this HAS turned into a "news item", I don't see what purpose is served by ignoring the fact that some will try to use the divorce filing to take away from Cindy's message.

I think we're better off being free to discuss the issue and how best to respond to her detractors.

11. I see your point.
I posted this after I read a supposedly new post in LBN, so that's why I got upset. General Discussion of the matter, and how fucked up freepers are to focus on it, is fine, but posting every lame article about it should be combined into one thread or something.

Cindy says leave it alone, so leave it alone!

12. I agree...there are just too many threads on it.
Combining them would definitely help.
