Because my surfing habits have changed, I was going to delete the Kent Brockman BBC/AP news feed in the World News Recap section. I don't need it personally, and I'm reasonably certain no one else likes it.
Then I updated the forum and his posts started showing up in the "Recently Added Topics" sidebar. In this sidebar, "by Kent Brockman" is added to the title of the thread. Hilarity ensued.
Some examples:
Top Taliban arrested in Pakistan by Kent Brockman
Obama accepts lawmaker's apology for floor remark by Kent Brockman
Afghan fraud ballots invalidated by Kent Brockman
Contractor electrocuted in shower by Kent Brockman (my favorite)
As you can see, Kent Brockman is an active litigator, Interpol agent and occasional electrocutor.

Comedy gold... yes.
But I'm confused, are you deleting him or not?

After Kent electrocuted a contractor in the shower?
Unless someone speaks out that they specifically want him to stay, the comedy will wear off and he will be removed.

I know I'm the last one who has ever said anything nice about Kent ... but I would cry if he went. Not the kind of crying you're thinking off, the kind you have after a really good masturbation into a fresh sock.

I think Kent should stay. He annoys Jeckles.

Venezuela to get Russian missiles by Kent Brockman
He makes missiles now.
House plans to admonish Rep. Wilson over outburst by Kent Brockman
Hardly seems fair to punish another man for Kent's outburst.
Obama to impose tariffs on Chinese tires by Kent Brockman
After monopolizing the Russian missile industry, he's built Chinese tire factories. Is there nothing Kent can't do?
It's gonna take a few weeks for this to get old for me.

Reminds me of the time I went through a stage with my desk calendar and I'd read aloud the quotes at the bottom, but add "in bed" at the end.
I say keep him. I've been amused by quite a number of posts in here that have been followed by someone's name, and not just Kent's
