I agree that the design of the nation's site is better/more modern. However, when I landed on the site, I was able to read the first sentence before a modal subscription form popped up. I clicked the little x button in the top right of that modal, and it did a full page load redirecting me to an article about hillary clinton, and then popped the subscription modal again.

I clicked the x button again and it did the same fucking thing, so I gave them the email address [e-mail], found the article I was trying to read and noticed that it was sourced from the link I dropped above. That page loaded quickly and showed me what I wanted to see, the content.

That does sound like a bad experience indeed. I didn't get that myself, and can't seem to replicate it now in incognito either. Perhaps geo-targeting?

Pop-ups suck, and I wish my browser's pop-up blocker would also block these inline e-mail asking dialogs in every site.

I've been meaning to whip up a browser extension that streamlines the Open web inspector - find offending node on page - delete div element work flow.

There are some out there that sort of do what I want, but I really just want to right click on the annoying popup/ad/whatever and select delete from the contextual menu, or something like that.
