Tell HN: Aaron Swartz's website is offline
His post <i>"I hate the news"</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://www.aaronsw.com/weblog/hatethenews" rel="nofollow">http://www.aaronsw.com/weblog/hatethenews</a>
