Blogging the Civil War

The New York Times has launched "Disunion": a blog about the American Civil War that's updated in real time. By the looks of it, they're appropriately up to November of 1960.

It's only a matter of time before they have secessionist trolls and the comment sections devolve into debates about whether Mary Todd Lincoln is "too shrill." Then the inevitable rally about how the North and South are both equally insane, followed by the craziest, wingnuttiest Confederate commenters being hired by CNN.
