Talk:CNET

This redirect--and the corresponding lack of an article on CNET.com--does a major disservice to most readers, who are coming here to learn about the current website with which they have some familiarity. CNET.com is still a very much active site, a top site at that, yet this redirect takes the reader to a website that starts out "CNET Networks, Inc. was a media company". I am going to take steps to help the average reader find what he is looking for. 98.82.34.167 (talk) 05:01, 14 May 2010 (UTC)

Inaccurate to suggest that CBS is deleting CNET reviews

Hi all, full disclosure: I am the senior social media manager at CNET.

This statement in the introduction about CNET is inaccurate: "CNET also review some products, but product reviews are monitiored by CBS and CBS may force CNET to take down a review."

CNET has not been forced by CBS to take down a review. In fact, the Dish review is still on the site: http://reviews.cnet.com/digital-video-recorders-dvrs/dish-hopper-with-sling/4505-6474_7-35566943.html

CNET's policy is that it will not, in the future, review specific products that are involved in active litigation with CBS, but a review has not been taken down.

I propose to delete the statement in the intro.

LOL, fix your download links so it doesn't try to install computer-corrupting Coupon Companion c**pware. I mean seriously, surprised that Google and Mozilla hasn't downranked you to unsafe, yet. Yeah, it's really gotten that bad for people visiting the site that they get turned off from cnet/download.com links. Not trying to be mean and know it probably not your area but something that had to be said! 71.196.246.113 (talk) 19:28, 10 February 2013 (UTC)
