Between Ed’s and my 20-25 posts plus the 40 or so Headline items, Hot Air must get, let’s say, 2,700 comments a
day.
To put that in perspective, if I worked 15 hours a day doing nothing but moderating them, in order to read and
rule on each one I’d have to work at a clip of three comments per minute without taking a single break.
That is to say, we’d need not one but two full-time moderators to do the job right, the cost of which would bankrupt
nearly any blog given the realities of online ad revenue, especially in a recession.
