The thing is, people get gigged for posting something from Daily Kos or Huff Po, but they blink at you in surprise when they post stuff from the Blaze and American Thinker, and you scoff at it.

Politics.

I have even seen some on the right here use TMZ ....lol

Well, since nobody rioted and broke windows, set cars on fire, and destroyed private property, as the OP postulated would happen...I would say this thread is a fail.

Looks like someone needs to widen their world view a litte.
