The comments on stories appearing wbrz.com are comedic gold…but, they appear to be disabled, across the board, as of now.

Anyone else notice that?

They can't handle the truth, apparently.

They can’t have you plebs interrupting their narrative.

They don’t like people telling their journalists how wrong they are.

Yahoo did the same thing.

Because the truth hurts peoples feelings.

What’s funny about that though is they need the comments, likes, and shares for ratings and making money.

So that’s a bold strategy by turning them off

A lot of those comments are like knives to the eyes, so it wouldn’t bother me.

It’s why the comments are on at FoxNews.com but nbcnews.com, abcnews.com and cbsnews.com are disabled. They are afraid of what 90% of America really thinks.

Many Progressive outlets do this now. They want to censor any potential debate against their narrative. You know, like Nazis did. Except, of course, they call those who disagree with them "Nazis".

Well, they probably don't like being pointed out for how wrong they are.

Viewers and subscribers are much smarter than reporters, editors and news directors give them credit for.

Quit being dramatic and sensational and viewers and readers will support the product.

When you can't control the narrative, change the rules

They probably haven’t figured out how to update their website to incorporate the new Disqus format. Happened to WBRZ last time Disqus made a change too.

I’m ok with censoring anything I disagree with.

70% of the country is mouthbreathers that allow 10% of the overzealous loudmouth idiots to define them.

10% = ones in the local news comment section

70% = the ones that pay attention to the comment section

20% = have no need want or even curiosity to read the nonsense
