It’s the new year and the end of the first decade of the century and we find ourselves in a bit of a reflective mood. We’ve published almost 2,500 articles in 2009, our first year. What, we wondered, were the most popular ones?
Based on the number of reader comments, here they are. Ranked in order, like we’re professional or something.
Cell phones for the poor. Your number one story and your number five story in 2009.
Our number one story (your number one story) by a wide margin was the “cell phones for the poor scam.” In fact, it’s not only your number one story, but also your number five story. You’ve left almost 1,000 comments between just those two articles.
Without further ado, here are the top eleven 2009 IHateTheMedia.com stories.
