This is a news site. Trying to black out news (or speculation, or estimates, or exit polls, if clearly labeled as such) is silly.
The same applies, in my opinion, to those requests about not posting the results of sporting events taking place on the other side of the world until the delayed broadcasts hit U.S. TV. To heck with that.
Anyone who wishes to remain in the dark is free to do so. But don't look at Free Republic, and expect everyone to refrain from reporting what's on the media, or providing links thereto.
I have never understood that. If I am not watching a game in real time I can't influence the outcome by shouting at my TV. Nothing matches the satisfaction of screaming "screen pass" (or what have you) and the coach takes me up on my suggestion and gets that 1st or a TD.
