Mashable reports a wide variety of stuff these days, like this current top story:

Of course! Anything that brings visitors who you can serve ads to is good content. Re-wording AP releases or stories from news websites does not take much time.

It's okay. News websites are easy to knock. Truth is we have spent months following this story and have a reporter on the ground in Kyiv. This is a sampling: http://mashable.com/category/ukraine-protests/. More here: https://www.google.com/search?q=ukraine+site%3Amashable.com&....

The article on Al Jazeera's imprisoned reporters was a really good read. I guess I should thank you for sending me there.

You mean the re-worded http://www.aljazeera.com/news/middleeast/2014/02/al-jazeera-... ? You are welcome for me sending you to Al Jazeera.
