Some of it goes to keep Free Republic running.
Where does your money come from
General cleverness, hard work and learning.
Doesn't seem as if you actually read the blog
I sure didn't. I noted that it was excerpted needlessly
and formed all the conclusions I needed at that point.
When some blogger attempts to use FR as an advertising platform, I might make mention of it.
Have you some problem with that?
I have a major problem with it, and so do a lot of Freepers. And it's more than that you are just an annoying obsessive-compulsive thread hijacker - much more.
You see, your basic premis is to attack people for doing exactly what Free Republic does. The MSM hate FR because it excerpts articles, and actually sued FR to try to close it down. In response an agreement was reached about excert lengths, and some news sources are cut out completely from FR.
So who the hell are you to deny bloggers this exact same process? Why don't you attack everyone on FR for participating at all - aren't we all excerpting from the MSM? Why don't you come to their defense?
Oh, because you've personally decided that the MSM is legitimate news, and bloggers are illegitimate? When FR itself is lambasted for that exact same thing by the MSM? When the very purpose of FR is to dig down and expose the bias and lies of the MSM? When FR bloggers have broken historic stories buried by the MSM?
And then you SLANDER ALL OF THEM by referring to them as mere advertising platforms, while completely ignoring their content? Your arrrogant claims of legitimacy are a bald-faced lie!
YOU HAVE NO MORAL BASIS FOR YOUR HARRASSMENT OF FREEPERS!
Get a life, humblegunner. And stop helping the MSM hide things, by attacking bloggers PER SE. If you want to actually help, read bloggers and disagree with them ON MERIT. Not merely because they exist. All you are doing is showing that you are unable to take part in legitimate conversations, and instead have found a little schtick to annoy people with - and greatly help the MSM hide information from people.
For the millionth time, humblegunner, KNOCK IT OFF!
