What do ppl here make of zerohedge?A force for good?A force for evil?A good read?From my perspective, at it's best it pretty incisive, at it's worst it's pure cut and paste plagiarism with Max Keiser style ranting thrown in for good measure.And I can never get how many of the "comments" are spoofs and how many represent severe failures ofmental health treatment.

ZH is, at best, random... Most of the stuff which I have seen contains glaring, blatant and obvious inaccuracies, some of which, I am convinced, are deliberate. Occasionally. I have seen some insightful articles on ZH, but those are rare. The tone of most of their writing is shrill and annoying and, like I said above, my impression is that ZH would never let actual facts and evidence stand in the way of a "good" story.Overall, ZH, in my view, a waste of time and often worse.
