Digg is a prize target for manipulators — getting listed on the front page all but guarantees a tidal wave of traffic headed toward the submitted link. After repeated revisions to the algorithm, it apparently remains no less vulnerable.

I would assume that a moving picture is worth even more. But that does not stop “My Man Mitt” Jason Bonham from dishonestly misquoting one of the YouTubes that I took of John McCain this weekend in New Hampshire… [...] […] A little later Eye on 08’s Soren Dayton posted this: People say that a picture is worth a thousand words.

Derrida and Searle would be proud of a bunch of conservatives arguing about the authorship of Jason quoting Human Events quoting McCain quoting the Supreme Court…) of one of the YouTubes that Matt Lewis and I took on the Straight Talk Express. Matt pushed back, saying: In my view, Soren is being too hard on MyManMitt. Yes, technically McCain was misquoted — but not misrepresented.  It is clear that McCain agrees with the courts — that’s why he is quoting them. In my view, this is a matter of semantics (and not worth flaming somebody over). [...] […] Yesterday, I criticized an egregious misquoting (turns out the misquoting was not original.

Far be it from me to side with the so-called RomneyBots -- I kinda like that term, though I'm not sure it applies here -- but doesn't it sound like McCain is agreeing with the courts?
