Does nobody on FR do a search before they post an article anymore? This is the second posting of this news and this happens all the time these days.
“Does nobody on FR do a search before they post an article anymore?”
I once did a search using the exact headline-——then I went to just keywords. Nothing showed but there HAD been a thread on the article.
In other words,searching often doesn’t work.

You are certainly free to interrupt this thread by being grumpy but please know that some of us, having missed the first posting, actually appreciate a second or third posting--and always have--as you might infer from all the posters who commented on this thread and didn't complain about its existence. What I notice is that in recent years we've had far fewer complainants about multiple-postings, which some of us also appreciate.
RE: This is the second posting of this news and this happens all the time these days.
Here’s what I usually do before posting :
1) Copy the EXACT title of the news and do a search using the FR search feature.
If found, I won’t post.
If not found, do another search by keyword:
2) Keyword: Natalie Cole
Doing the above gave me only the news that she had a Kidney transplant (but that was in 2009 ), not her death.
So I posted this news...
I have no control over what people post after that.
