How many of you think those folks above are NOT making millions? How many of you think they receive no financial benefit from their ad stuffed, self-promoting, sales cart inundated websites?

I believe you have a poor argument my friend. Making a profit is not evil in most cases. For what FR provides on a cost/benefit analysis, Mr. Robinson has them beat hands down.

I have an issue with anyone promoting "envy" agendas or politics. IMHO It's the same is bigotry and racism.

A more plausible question would be which of them ISN'T making money "from their ad stuffed, self-promoting, sales cart inundated websites?" Otherwise they wouldn't have profit. Is there something wrong with making a profit?

Jim could easily sell this site for millions, if not tens-of-millions of dollars.

Did you not see the anti-Jim Robinson thread from TrueBlueRinos?

If you had, you’d understand what is being said.

I find Fox New surprising as it is a very klunky unreadable and unusable website.

I'm disappointed to find NewsBusters at #18.

It is the most important Conservative counter punch in America against Hard Left bias in the Main Stream Media.

Sorry for the late response. I went back and... you're right. I jumped the gun.

The date given as the publication date of the list was way, way wrong. You entered the date of its appearance (July 12, 2012) as the same day that you posted it, when in fact this article was over three years old!

This was published originally on March 16, 2009 by John Hawkins on the FarRightNews web site.

Of course, my comment here is long after the time of your posting on FR, but I feel it is significant that your error could have led to incorrect conclusions during the election-frenzy realignment of sites on the list.

FYI

I think someone else mentioned that in one of the posts, but then JR or someone posted a newer listing that was similar to this one.

So, it didn’t really matter.

FR was still near the top. And if you take out those that aren’t really conservative websites, FR is even higher.

Clarification: posted it as a newer thread all its own.

No advertisers, no sales promotions, no merchandising, no gimmicks. No corporate string pullers, no sugar daddies, no government grants, no tax subsidies.

No stable of paid writers, reporters or editors, no syndicates.

Unencumbered, unbeholden to outsiders, no bosses to please or lose funding.

Just us free citizens exercising our constitutional rights.

This is good, and I believe personally that all FReepers should feel very good about belonging to this great site, and chip in some $$$ whenever they can. The donate link, and the PO Box address in Fresno are open 24 hours a day, seven days a week, 365 days of the year. Send whatever you can folks.

Right now is the best time ever to send a donation to the cause of keeping the doors open no matter how large. I know how embarrassing it can be to send in those really BIG contributions to the cause, but YOU ARE A FREEPER, YOU ARE TOUGH, and I know you can do it.

I agree. I go to my local newspaper website, and I’m battling pop-ups, attacks, pages littered with ads throughout the entire time I spend trying to get last night’s baseball scores.

Try Ad Block Plus and watch those ads and popups disappear.

Woohoo!

Love the ‘independent’ reminder! Wonder how long it will take the GOPe, RINOS, democrat leftists and state run media traitors to catch on that most new ‘independents’ are not left wing low information voters? I have been describing myself of late on Twitter as ‘an independent Reagan conservative’. Screw the GOPe and Marxist media!

Let’s roll!
