I'm posting this before Brian???

http://www.cyclingnews.com/news/lanc...faces-backlash
regarding this site-
http://www.lancesupport.org/blog/mes...f-support.html which apparently
allows un-moderated comments. That's hardly the definition of a site being
"hacked" though. Cyclingnews doesn't quite seem to be all-there lately.

My apologies; Cyclingnews didn't say the site had been "hacked" but rather
"hijacked" and that, in fact, is an appropriate description.

And this is news? Must be a really slow day at CyclingNews central.

Brian: Serious question. Do you think the motivations of those putting up
that site are genuine, that they could be so naive that they wouldn't expect
the comments they've gotten? That seems pretty unlikely to me. I don't even
allow unmoderated comments on my own site, and I certainly wouldn't attract
the audience this one does.

Brian doesn't like serious questions that challenge his view of the
world.

This must be one of those "laughing at, not laughing with" situations.

Jesus, the "badges" area makes me want to retch. Looks like something
Landis would have done.

What I think is irrelevant to their site. I suggest you ask them.

Lance was already getting his ass beaten down in mainstream news comments
sections (i.e. Washington Post, nytimes)...why is this dinky site now all of a
sudden news?

Wait until cyclingnews sees the ****ing YouTube cartoons of Lance and Mini-Me
Levi - the headline will be "Lance Detractor Hijacks YouTube."
