The news articles are usually fairly good, though the reporters often miss important events. Diaries are often of less quality. But the comments are often naive and biased. I had enjoyed free and open discourse at Firedog Lake for several years, but when that closed the only alternative was, sadly, DailyKos. Other commenters there frequently lack the acumen to understand my posts; and if someone makes an observation they don't agree with, especially from an actual progressive stance, the moderators are quick to ban that person. So, the website poses as a "liberal" forum, but in reality is quite provincial, pedantic and conservative, pernicious to the progressive cause.
