Articles
Just a poll to see who exactly reads the articles that people are constantly posting...especially the HUGE ones... I, for one, usually just skim them to get the general idea, and then i refer to people's comments to better understand what is being said.

Depends on what kind of source it is. Any news source with credibility yes ... the right wing/socialist daily type sources no.

I don't read most of the articles in quotes

like this
its too small and i just don't read it... if you post an entire article, just copy and paste the text, don't use the quotes, we know its not you who wrote it and put a link at the end
also any news information with a domain name that ends with .il hehe
