What's up with that @AndyLouis? Just another white man trying to keep a Russian down.

Good sleuthing, made me do some fact checking of my own. This topic had 92 comments so far:

The Brady Columbia bashing thread (I believe there were a few unrelated comments to CBS bashing buried in that thread as well) probably had many more comments than the above thread.

 

Can't trust Andy with this type of data. He might as well work for FactSet.
