Comment Section likely to be changed, please fill out survey

Feb. 19, 2017 Staff Report

The comment section of the Forest Hills Post is likely to change following an increase in the number of mean-spirited responses in recent times.

The Forest Hills Post’s comment section has rarely been moderated and that was largely because of the belief of “free speech,” as well as the sheer volume of them on a day-to-day basis. Between the Forest Hills Post and the other sites that are part of the Queens Post, more than 100 comments come in per day.

A new comment system is likely to be put in place by March 1. Before that is done we would like your feedback.
