Speaking of 15 nanoseconds of fame

Posted on Fri, Jun 10, 2005 at 3:14 PM

Earlier today, iBurlington got linked from Andrew Sullivan's Daily Dish. The post Sullivan linked refers to a Vermonter's quest to get a vanity plate reading "JN36TN," which refers to John 3:16, and which VT says is therefore a violation of the separation of church and state. The link has spiked iBurlington's traffic in a crazy way. Their stories usually get a dozen or so page views, maybe more on a really good day. So far, this story has been viewed over 5000 times.

Webmaster Brian Brown says he emailed Sullivan a link to the story because he thought the gay Catholic blogger would be interested. Good call.

Since 2014, Seven Days has allowed readers to comment on all stories posted on our website. While we’ve appreciated the suggestions and insights, the time has come to shut them down — at least temporarily.

While we champion free speech, facts are a matter of life and death during the coronavirus pandemic, and right now Seven Days is prioritizing the production of responsible journalism over moderating online debates between readers.

To criticize, correct or praise our reporting, please send us a letter to the editor. Or send us a tip. We’ll check it out and report the results.
