WGBH is looking for some comment trolls

Because either they're not going to let the Globe and Herald dominate that part of the commentosphere any longer or they want to do a story on the ghastly people who post those horrid things.

What?! Someone is going to.... PAY ATTENTION TO US?!!!!
Trolls
lovey our station is doing a story on those common trolls who apparently make comments at some local newspapers that aren't The New York Times. I think we should ask the house staff if they are involved in this type of thing. Heavens. Thank Wall Street we'll be at the Cape House for the summah... Pesky Internet
Typical liberal public
Typical liberal public mainstream media, kissing up to Devalue Patrick and Boss Menino. Tell you what: When the twittering doves at WGBH take a stand against EBT cards, Obamacare, and the liberal judges who give free passes to career criminals and Dem pension abuse, then I'll think about trolling WGBH.
What does that stand for anyway? We Give Boston Herpes?
Sincerely,

PS: Go Gabriel! Don't let them take away our assault weapons!
Don't worry I'll win and make
Don't worry I'll win and make sure government keeps working to keep you from working.
Slow clap
Well played, sir.
ghastly common trolls
clutch the pearls
I do hope we shan't have to put up a paywall to keep them out.
Naw, there'll just be comment
Naw, there'll just be comment registration with a lengthy waiting period, bans on assault commenting, mental health screening, a in-depth background check and other infringements of the 1st amendment to keep illegal comments from flooding our reportage.
Whine and cheese Party online
Snippy remarks online without having to put on a sports jacket or cocktail dress!
My bad: 2nd homophonic comment in a week.
What this article is
What this article is describing is someone's legitimate attempt at humor, however misguided. This is not trolling. This is just called joking, and just because some might find it offensive does not a troll make. As a reminder, joking is when someone tries to be funny. Trolling is when a person tries to get someone else to be funny at their own expense. Please get it right, internet.
