LOL...
Looks like the dirty laundry is out there now...
I wonder who tipped them...
Once we stop going there you should be able to see the decline here...

Seeing as HuffPo seems to be the Way Kos wants to go...
Huge shocker that they would support his version.
I of course would have headlined that a little differently.
"DailyKos Founder announces Editorial Direction."
Nice and neutral, and even lets him tell his side...
Of course what I'm really thinking is "Kos: STFU or GTFO or How DailyKos is a Prime Investment Opportunity for the coming regime"
I do not pretend I know what I do not know.
Crikey! I wanted to flag the comments!
Sanders supporter: Hillary voted for the AUMF
Clinton supporter: How vile of you to say so!
Sanders supporter: Hillary likes fracking
Clinton supporter: You're sexist!
Sanders supporter: Hillary has taken millions in speaking fees from the big banks
Clinton supporter: How vile and sexist! You must stop these rightwing attacks!
Sanders supporter: What Republicans are attacking Hillary for her Iraq vote, for fracking, for supporting Goldman Sachs?
Clinton supporter: How vile, sexist and rightwing!
Notice the tone?
I noticed the tone is nearly IDENTICAL to that of DKos.
The change happened right about the time of the changeover to DKos 5.
Kos got exactly what he was looking for. His site went youtube comment section.
Now he's trying to get his "Community" back, not realizing that the genie is LONG out of the bottle.
I do not pretend I know what I do not know.
This doesn't surprise me
HuffPo has always been a sort of mainstream feminist site. The same kind of mainstream feminists that said young women who voted for Sanders just wanted to be around boys. You know. Hormones.
Apparently he also made this statement on the radio
"(I've been reading Dkos on and off for many years, not a poster though.) I tuned into SiriusXM's 'Progress' channel a little bit ago this afternoon, and guess who was on? Markos! He was going on and on about how he's kicking out the Sanders supporters on March 15 to focus on Hillary and the senate, plus how he wants his site to be more diverse and that this desire for diversity supposedly offended white people (he even made some sort of reference to some of the white users of his site being like white nationalists!? wtf). A listener sent in a tweet or email saying that the site should now be called Hillarykos instead of Dailykos."
HillaryKos has a nice ring to it, doesn't it?
So it's not even that people can't speak RWNJ talking points, his real goal is to kick off the Bernie supporters. I certainly don't understand how or why he has changed so much since he started the website.
Which AIPAC/MIC/pharma/bank bought politician are you going to vote for? Don’t be surprised when nothing changes.
Voting is like driving with a toy steering wheel.
He's flailing.
Toss every smear against your enemies and hope it sticks.
Sexist/Racist is of course the fall back of his site, and used to great effect by his front pagers, so it's no surprise to see him trotting it out for his MSM appearances.
And he's getting his diversity. The tone perfectly matches the worst sewers of the internet. Be careful what you wish for, and all that.
I do not pretend I know what I do not know.
Kos is trying to have it all ways at once
He wants "greater diversity" but he also wants "unity", and he's trying to get it by kicking out people whose views are too...diverse.
WTF?
There is no justice. There can be no peace.
We could just stay anyway. I don't like bullies
And there are some great people on the site that so far haven't joined here. I'm divided on the issue.
Which AIPAC/MIC/pharma/bank bought politician are you going to vote for? Don’t be surprised when nothing changes.

great people on Kos

Whoah! Guess we have clarification, now.
(Regarding Markos' intent, that is).

Timbuk 3 – Big Shot In The Dark
You used to be a candle in the wind
Now you're a big shot in the dark
You used to think that love was the answer
Now it's just another big question mark
You used to believe in the power of music
And all that revolutionary stuff
Back when money was the root of all evil
Back before you suddenly grew up
You used to laugh at the men on the chessboard
All those little pawns wanting to be king
You used to say "I refuse to play that game"
Now you think that winning is everything
You used to feel like a babe in the woods
Livin' out of your little gunny sack
You used to be a cry in the wilderness
Now you're just another lumberjack
You had it right the first time
You used to love swimming upstream
Now you like to go with the flow
Take a ride on the big waterslide
And never mind the rocks
Or the whirlpool down below
You used to be a candle in the wind
Now you're a big shot in the dark
You used to think that love was the answer
Now it's just another big question mark
You used to believe in the power of music
And all that revolutionary stuff
Back when money was the root of all evil
Now you just can't seem to get enough
You had it right the first time
