I like that there are no comment sections.. but... you also need to remove click bait
As an attorney, I know we need to present facts to the public in order to provide transparency. I like that the comments section is gone because I believe people were reading the head line only and then posting comments based on beliefs not facts.

I get that most people do not know the difference between stories and the news, but news must be brought back to battle…

Don't censor, gaslight or disable commenting!!
Disabling commenting on controversial articles (like the catholic priest comments criticizing Trump for Capitol Hill break-in) is censoring to avoid controversial speech and implicitly gaslighting the audience.

We have a right to know what this screener is rejecting not a "you broke a twitter rule so your account is suspended for one week or forever. Have some decency with suspensions. I see much worst than I HAVE EVER SAID.

Has any feedback actually supported removal of the comments section?
How has removal of the comments section made us safer? Do you think hearing alternative viewpoints is dangerous?

Disclaimer Error
The disclaimer at the end of your articles reads "Our goal is to create a safe and engaging place for users to connect over interests and passions. In order to improve our community experience, we are temporarily suspending article commenting" -- It should say "Our goal is to create a far left narrative that seldom reflects the truth, we have eliminated the comments section to keep you from calling our leftist propaganda ********, and blatant disregard for facts" -- There ya go, fixed it for you!!
