You know, if you let everyone use the Internet, the average quality of the writing will go down!!!
The average is completely the wrong metric to be using here. Not as good articles do not 'infect' the good articles, and the average is meaningless. If you don't need to know about a topic covered by an article you disapprove of... you don't have to read it.
