I think you’re way out of line in making such demands.. If you don’t like the source of an article don’t click on the link to read it. Or is that too much to ask of you? Stop acting like a whiny little prima donna.

I didn’t mean to sound like I was making a demand. I’m a guest here along with everyone else, and I am grateful to belong to the community.
It is my opinion that WND is publishing articles designed to cause fear — for the purpose of getting web hits. The title of this article is “U.S. on alert for nuclear blast overhead.” This is over-the-top. Yes, there is a threat. A great threat. But that company is capitalizing on fear, and I am not alone in this opinion.
“Stop acting like a whiny little prima donna.”
I apologize if my post soundy whiny. I do hope that is not the case. I have no demand to make. But I do stand by my request. I think that WND has gone too far, and my opinion is that FR should not be sending them traffic. I think WND has become bad for conservatism. Again, this is my opinion. And the Moderators are very free to ignore me.
I ended my post with “Thank you, Moderators, for your consideration. And bless you, regardless of your decision.” I don’t think that sounds like I am a “whiny little prima donna.” At least I hope not.
But thank you for your response. I sometimes need to be pulled back like everyone else, and I went back and re-read my post to see if I had come across as demanding. I don’t think I did, but it can be good to be cautioned. I thank you.
One other thing: I checked out your Freeper page and see that you served in the USMC 1981 - 1996. Awesome! Thank you for your long service to our country.
He didn’t demand anything.
So you don’t think ANY source should be banned? Is there never a reason to not use a source? Of course there. Credibility is the number one reason.
There are blogs that can’t be sourced in breaking news and are still treated as red headed step kids around here, so why is WND given more face time and credit than many credible conservative blogs? I’m not pushing for blog acceptance here, I am just saying that sources are discriminated against all the time around here (and rightfully so), so why shouldn’t WND be held to at least the same standards?
