Reddit CEO admits to altering user comments that were critical of him

And without an "edited" mark, which means that any comment of any user can be covertly modified by an admin. Very concerning since Reddit comments have provoked even Congress hearings: http://thehill.com/policy/national-security/296680-house-pan...

In which people discover admins can admin a database.

Also, ceo of reddit looks like a horrid job.

You could not pay me enough to be CEO of that cesspool. People take Reddit way too seriously.

Not as seriously as The New York Times, which has been guilty of far worse gaslighting.

Walter Duranty and The New York Times were enough to make Ukranian survivors of Holomodor thought of as crazy in this country for about 50 years: http://www.americanthinker.com/articles/2010/07/crimes_of_th... Think about that next time you read about how Google and Facebook are going to tell you which sources are fake news and which aren't. Or not actually tell you, just put all the blacklisted ones down a memory hole.

The NY Times apologized and agrees with the critique that its reporter was terrible:

The Times sent von Hagen's report to the Pulitzer Board and left it to the Board to take whatever action they considered appropriate.[27] In a letter accompanying the report, New York Times publisher Arthur Ochs Sulzberger, Jr. called Duranty's work "slovenly" and said it "should have been recognized for what it was by his editors and by his Pulitzer judges seven decades ago."
