Tell HN: Aaron Swartz's website is offline
His post <i>&quot;I hate the news&quot;</i>(0) was(is) very influential for me personally.<p>It was seminal in what become a rather significant change in my habits and view of  the world. I am now very conscious that news are entertainment, purely and simply. With the goods and bads of any other entertainment form.<p>From time to time, while explaining my position to others (often seen as kind of radical), I refer this post. I hope it continues to be available.<p><a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.aaronsw.com&#x2F;weblog&#x2F;hatethenews" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.aaronsw.com&#x2F;weblog&#x2F;hatethenews</a>
