I don't mean to disrespect either side with this but my interest doesn't lie in a rehash of the evening news on DU.

I generally read a news paper once a week, view the national news almost daily and the local news most days on TV. I make avid use of the spam bucket on all of my email accounts and I see this as an analogous mindset.

I don't begrudge anyone from engaging their type of posting but I have no interest in participating.

To each his own.
