Huh? The Rally was a success because the Daily Show and Colbert Report have a loyal fan base, and both shows hyped and entertained their fans (myself included) for weeks before the actual event. I suspect that Facebook, Twitter and the Huffington Post had more to do with attendance at the Rally than Fark or Reddit. I did see a few signs at the Rally mentioning Reddit, FWIW, but no more than I saw signs offering people the opportunity to jump rope with or get a hug from a Muslim attendee.
I managed to get my ride down to DC through my Facebook connections, otherwise I would have gone on a free bus to and from DC with Huffington Post.

I've heard of fark - I don't know what it is, but I've heard of it. Never heard of Reddit. Don't care if they are upset...

Can't we all just get along?
Or a bong?
