My understanding of Patch is that they have regional journalists who post (or repost) news and are responsible for the moderation of the comments in their region. Whoever is in charge of the Chicago-metro region either doesn’t moderate at all, or actively pro-moderates in terms of screeching racist fear mongers. The news they report is fine. The comments section makes me highly aware that those in nearby communities are filled with complete racist, paranoid f-holes.
