Interference on R2 - again

[TBBlue]

Tee,
Thanks for your insight from a writer's perspective. I have enjoyed your work that I have read. I made a general comment on editors from an admittedly non publishing background. Just a reader. You are correct in that (good and competent) editors don't change a writer's thoughts and points. They just make the piece more concise and gramatically correct. Therefore, more enjoyable to read. Most fall into this category. I took a shot at SI because I don't agree with their editorial slant. That is strictly a personal opinion, and unfortunately, the way I phrased my comments made it appear that I was taking a shot at all editors.

Carl, thanks for saving the latter part of this thread. I had no intention of getting an editing debate going, but you and Garth have probably helped everyone that reads this site understand what goes into the articles that are posted on the pay site. They aren't just thrown up there with no consideration of content from you or any other editors that may be responsible for content.
