Good discussion in this commenting thread. The idea was just presented that the Register went to comment registration under pressure from local politicians. I doubt it. I'm not saying that local politicians weren't getting upset about it, I just think there were enough complaints from people across the spectrum that Phares and Co. were realizing the comments were becoming more damage than they're worth. Somebody else pointed out that the SR is suffering from it - but probably only a little. They're still the only major media company in this area.
