Alan Denton – Afraid Of Commenters

March 12, 2012 in Gawker

Hey – do you read Gawker? Do you comment there? You sound like an asshole, then. Because you’ve been terrifying one of  new-medja’s titans – Alan Denton, erstwhile owner of said blog-clusterfuck. Yes – he’s a-scared of what you might write on his sites. He scurries down a hole like a badger with TB whenever you comment. WHY ARE YOU BEING MEAN TO ALAN? HE ONLY WANTS MONEY AND POWER!!! God, just give it a rest you scoundrels. Why are you being so horrid to Alan? It’s not as if he has the ultimate power on the Gawker network, is it? No – no-one there has the power to switch off the comments, do they? Of course not. Anyway – poor Alan actually stops people writing things on his sites because he’s afraid of what the all-powerful commenters might write below them, using words and utilizing a system that baffles me so much that I’m amazed anyone still fucking bothers. Also – I never noticed this fear when he ran post after post about Julia-whatshername for years. Maybe Alan is just getting old in his declining years. Whatever. Just stop being mean to Alan with your unfunny, unenlightening, dull commentary and do something else with your life, you scum.
