NASA Closes Space Science News Web Site

Surazal writes "Here's a fine example of Dilbert-esque management decisions that have no basis in reality. The popular Space Science News website will be taken down Monday, simply because management decided the site was not the direction they wanted to go, despite the fact the site was the place for journalists, scientists, and the general population to check up on what's going on up above. This is not a horribly bright PR move in my opinion."

Might have helped if the article was either acurate or interesting, or not shuffled off somewhere beyond the front page.

While I agree that the subsections don't seem to be working very well (I don't think more then 10 people actually know they exist), I don't see anything wrong with the accuracy of this story...NASA is indeed closing down this site. And it's also rather interesting, as it's more evidence of just how bad things have gotten at nasa...

Opinion not necessary.

Roblimo, why did you include that last sentence when you posted this story? The words "in my opinion" should not be used in a news story. They should be used only on the message board page or for articles that are truly opinion pieces.
