    They avoided being so tasteless on their main site.

    Unfortunate wording or just pure ignorant editorial ! Discuss

    I dunno, maybe. I get the impression it's trying (and failing miserably) to be really incisive and analytical. Its writers just don't have it.

    Saying a 'new low' is misleading as it implies that the website has a correlating 'high' that this article somehow deviates from.
