With thousands stories being listed on Digg everyday it seemed like too many mediocre ones were making the front page, so it appears that Digg modified their algorithm (or the algorithm automatically modified itself) for stories to require more diggs before they hit the front page."

Yeah, but this isn't the usual news site.. here, the whining hordes aren't the readers, they're the editors- and should be in the know.

It's an 'ad' by North Carolina Congressional challenger Vernon Robinson which is filled with anti-gay, racist, hate-filled rhetoric this side of 1940's Germany.
