They bought HuffPost, which later sold out to Failbook in their comments section. As though opening the floodgates to every Jesusbagger and junior-high troll on the #1 major social networking site is somehow going to "control the conversation."
No, I personally would like Failbook, Twit Droppings, Pinheadgram, TumbleBumble and all the other moron "Web 2.0" sites to go the way of fucking Prodigy.
Google, though, is so massive (not to mention disruptive, especially to the people of SF) that it needs to go down in a massive California wildfire and 9.0 earthquake to stop it once and for all. Crapple can go the way of Steve Jobs, and Microsuck can get washed away in a Seattle rainstorm for all I care.

Most clashes were between the suspected members of Hizbullah, a radical Islamist grouping whose members are mostly Kurdish and known for allegedly aiding the state in the torture and murder of Kurdish activists in the 1990, and the outlawed Kurdistan Workers' Party (PKK). The former group reportedly supports ISIL, while the latter supports the YPG, the Kurdish militia in Kobane, and has condemned the Turkish government's inaction in protecting Syrian Kurds.
The highest death toll was in the southeastern province of Diyarbakır, where suspected members of Hizbullah allegedly strafed a crowd of protesters. An association building belonging to Hizbullah was subsequently attacked. 10 people were killed in the city on Oct. 8, at least five of whom were described as pro-Hizbullah.

But should he really be looking to shoot the messenger rather than trying to fix the real problems?
