    I thought it was interesting to see bronies mentioned on Yahoo this morning.

    That's not so bad! The first part seemed a 'lil negatve to me, but it seems good.

    Hooray, decent coverage! It's hard to find articles about bronies which aren't biased.

    "This meet has been just perfect, the kind of meet of which I've dreamed since I was small. All the bronies gathered round, in their Rarity and Pinkie Pie gowns, and Yahoo was not aware of this at alllll."

    You might be able to catch my real name if you find this seeing as how my Yahoo account is my name.

    My mom read this yesterday morning. Woke me up and asked me if I was a "flamboyant costume wearing freak?" I laughed.

    I feel like this article does a good job of remaining objective and presenting the facts, which I greatly approve of. It's always awesome to see how much Faust defends bronies, too.

    It's always been that way, and it's difficult to go against something that's been a mostly unquestioned part of human life since the beginning of Humanity itself.

    That doesn't mean it's right, though.

    They did a very unbiased article about Bronies in the Star Ledger a few months back (NJ's biggest newspaper) and I meant to post something about it, but I forgot. :derpe:

    I still have the article though, and if anyone is interested(doubt it) I'm sure you can find it on the web.

    Haha, yesterday my local newspaper printed this article and my grandparents and parents read it.

    I bet a lot more people where I live are at least aware of us now, lol.
