The vitriol against Cavendish was just horrible to see.
My disbelieving reply after a particularly deluded comment that Cavendish had his collarbone broken after the crash in the hospital to gain sympathy after causing the crash was moderated out.
The Facebook comments on the cyclingweekly updates are just as bad.
A couple of minutes in the cyclingnews forums and I feel dirty. It's juvenile, incredibly partisan and distinctly anti-Sky. More over the moderation team are largely of the same ilk and posters that go against the over-riding 'everyone is doping' narrative are heavily censured and banned, while really unpleasant characters that troll regularly are free to bully and mock. It really is a cesspit. That nugget about Porte comes from there.
