    AUTOPLAY annoying as heck!!! please don’t AUTOPLAY videos!!!! I DO NOT VISIT WEBSITES THAT DO THAT – its even on the main page, its a sneaky tactic used by sites with no morals or code to try and get people to watch a video – when I first load a page I want to look at the menu and decide what I want to see, if you want to force a video on me then bye bye, I refuse to visit sites that do that, its just toooooo friggen annoying. As I am looking at the menu I suddenly get sound blasted through my headphones and have to scroll down to see where it is coming from??? if that happens again, you wont have to worry about me ever visiting this site again.

    Small thing, could the AV Staff reload the Boston Globe story without auto play? Not a big deal, just a request.

      We hear you Palmdale Steve. As part of the permission to use the video, we are doomed to the auto play.

    Let’s hope President Obama has better luck finding those who did this than the people who did the Benghazi attack. smh
