speaker.gif Digg, Gawker and Russia

Gawker is all in a lather about Digg.com and the "white male nerds" there who think

whatever Bush says is wrong, whatever the MSM says is wronger, and if the two are in agreement it's clearly the wrongest idea ever.

I'm not going to comment on Gawker's rather harsh (and I must admit, amusing) descriptions of the denizens of Digg, but I will say:

I tracked down the article that the fuss is all about, which ran in the U.K. Guardian. It's not nutty at all; it's actually a thoughful, well-reasoned opinion piece about the geopolitics of the Caucaus and the reasons the U.S. should stay the hell out.

So if this is what the Diggers like, they're a lot more intelligent that Gawker would have you believe.
