Thanks everyone for your comments, positive and negative. I am glad to see that so many of you feel so passionately about the TFP’s comments section. As I said in the column, we truly struggled with our decision. And while we stand by it and encourage you to keep commenting on our Opinion columns and cartoons and on our Facebook page, we appreciate your your opinions about the comments section. I did want to make one thing clear: This is not a decision made with advertisers in mind. Advertisers didn’t enter the conversations among TFP managers about this decision. The decision was made based on our readers, our credibility and our reputation. Thanks again for sharing your views on this. Alison Gerber
