Wait, you think people shouldn't post and discuss interesting stuff because you're to cheap to help underwrite the (very reasonable) cost of decent journalism?!

I'm sorry, but this is a news site. People come here to read and discuss relevant news. And while this may come as news to you, those articles don't write themselves for free.

You want to lecture somebody on etiquette? Go find a journalist and tell them how "rude" they're being by expecting payment for their work. Find their editors, while you're at it, and see if they're willing to discuss their "entitlement issues". If you haven't had your head ripped off maybe you can tell us how the conversation went.
