A lot of us here in the United States who are pickled in news about electoral politics at this time of year don't appreciate stories that are purely about electoral politics creeping on to Hacker News. The guidelines here say, after all, "Off-Topic: Most stories about politics, or crime, or sports, unless they're evidence of some interesting new phenomenon. Videos of pratfalls or disasters, or cute animal pictures. If they'd cover it on TV news, it's probably off-topic." I'm familiar with how to find Matt Taibbi's stories published in Rolling Stone, and I don't usually find them up to the "gratifies one's intellectual curiosity" standard expected here on Hacker News. This particular article digs into how a piece published online by the New York Times gradually underwent editing after first publication, which is interesting to any of us who do online publishing, so I thank the participant here who kindly submitted it, but it's apparent that most comments here are responding to the headline, or to the campaign in general, and not to the article's content at all.
