Inviting anonymous comments
Even The New York Times is entering the Internet fray: letting people post anonymous comments after stories (http://www.editorandpublisher.com/eandp/news/article_display.jsp?vnu_content_id=1003667823). For some reason, newspapers that would never print vitriolic comments on their opinion pages don't mind letting them sit there on a web page until someone complains. The Times is making an end run around this problem by hiring a "comment desk" to screen comments before they're posted. The rest of us will say we can't afford to spend extra money that way. Does that turn integrity into a budget issue?
