It's sad that a furry site had to close down, especially one dealing with a more niche topic, but I really just found myself disappointed by FNN. I had been excited when it first started but the lack of original content and the fidgety site (maybe it just gave me issues) quickly tempered that enthusiasm.
Aggregators are fine but so much mainstream news is just reposting the exact same thing that AP and Reuters puts out. I don't want to see furry news go that way. I think Flayrah's reporting quality is higher than quite a few mainsteam news outlets because we actually include links and relevant links. There are far too many news stories online that don't link to sources or only link to something vaguely related (usually tags on their own site).
