Quote from: TDoS on Apr 20, 2025, 08:55 AMThe title to this thread is "Why the Diner is independent". Could it also be that independence is easy to claim when its only 3 or 4 old farts, and we can say whatever we want...unless it is defined as dickhead of course.
Certainly, if we had a million subscribers it would be a lot more difficult to be left relatively unmolested, with only sporadic interference. We would probably get the AP treatment. It's the principle though, not the numbers.
Far as the alternate definition of knowing it when you see it being arbitrary, if it's good enough for the SCOTUS, it's good enough for the Diner.
