Also, there seems to be some sort of bug with the email collection modal. It refuses to go away, even though I've signed in with Twitter and provided my email. Makes it impossible to click the features stories.

We just pushed out a fix for this - it was happening to people who were already on our email waitlist.

If you enter your email now it should go away :)

Sorry about that!

Thanks for the quick fix!

This is unrelated to the actual product, but it's interesting that they'd choose to feature that branch on Obama. While a lot of the other branches seem to be highly informed discussions among experts who supply real evidence, that conversation seems shallow at best, very uniformed at the worst. Seemed more like a discussion you'd find in a Facebook comment thread and less like the conversations branch wants to foster. Did anyone else get that feeling?

They feature that branch because it consists of well-known online writers.
