HN would be a much better place if they banned domains like the guardian, nytimes etc entirely. There's way too much journospam.

The problem is that while the major media sites generate a lot of noise, they also publish solid original articles from time to time, and we don't want to miss those. For that reason, they're downweighted, but not banned.

I ran my own client side script to strip out links to such articles. New computer, didn't copy the script over, and now I'm engaged in passive aggressive discussions over some guardian article. It's my own weakness of course, but I am definitely not the only one.
