New and Improved Comments

We are launching a major overhaul of our comments section.

In addition to more robust spam filtering and moderation, new features include the ability to rate other comments, sort how they are displayed and respond directly via e-mail or in a thread.

Unfortunately, commenters will lose their existing Truthdig identities. It's a pain, we know, but on the plus side you will now be able to log in with a plethora of options, including Google, Twitter, Facebook and Disqus accounts.

Before launching this system we spent months in discussion with our top commenters. We listened to the feedback and we hope you like what we've come up with.

Please direct any problems or concerns to us via our contact page.

There is allready enough dumbing down of america the only station that has something to say and the powers that be want the whole of america to be ignorant just like in the 18th and 19th century.

There was once a party called the ‘No nothing party’.

How would we tell?
I mean there are so many characters with vivid coloured faces, one with an orange face would simply get lost. besides we already have “Animal” on drums.  .....where’s Igor when we need him?

Sesame Street hasn’t been the same since Elmo arrived and pushed my buddy Grover into the background.

Also… does anyone know where Bill Moyer’s new show might be watched on the internet????
