    The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

      I got the feeling in the last year that The Bee was starting to take itself a little too seriously, which is a shame. I just got this feeling that there was a little undercurrent of evangelism creeping in.

      I was only joking

          It could well be that they just could not monetize it adequately.

            My favourite satirist is Ian Hislop, who has edited Private Eye for 35 years.

            It says something that I have absolutely no idea how he votes, if indeed he does vote.

              Remember when it was sold?

              Who bought it and are they changing it? Or, have the owners sold it again?

                @jolly said in What's going on at The Bee?:

                No, when was that?

                      Has the Bee put anything out that’s been posted here since everything went down? I just scrolled through their headlines and found them pretty lacking…

                        I think it's not as good.
