I just evaluated the DMR article "Hunter kills rare Iowa mountain lion" comments and the results are pretty surprising! Pro Cougar = 34 Negative Cougar = 9 Neutral = 4 Unknown = 23 There were 70 that commented with 172 comments. If the commenter was strong in his/her comment, I noted a definite Pro / Con / Neutral. The ones that I couldn't tell were Unknown. If the commenter had more than one comment, I filed it under Not Appl. I, also, looked at how many people recommended the comments. Attached is my spreadsheet. Review, comments and suggestions are appreciated.
