I was watching while this happened, and I almost created a thread about it. But the situation righted itself pretty quickly. There was a thread in AskReddit that took over and another thread about what happened to r/news. It's more surprising to me that a major news outlet has the page space and resource to write about a mod mess up on a website the day after the largest mass murder in US history. Today, Steve Huffman created a thread to address the issues with the emphasis on the right issues, I think. It was about the tragedy first and foremost. The poor handling of the information was secondary but is being handled pretty well. I really like his responsiveness and the strategies they're trying for the future.
