BBC

The BBC used to have a comment section.

It had a few problems, the first that comes to mind is that it was all managed by internal staff.

This is inefficient and a waste of licenses payer's money really.

There must be a better way of moderating discussion.

Now there isn't even a comment board.

It’s a bit ridiculous how the world’s largest broadcasting organisation by employees doesn’t allow the public to discuss their content.

Extra: moderation was either reactive or pre/post comment.
