As reviews go I'd call that a keeper.

I have read posts stereotyping of women and blacks a few times (which perhaps got through only because of the sheer volume of posts.)

How can you possibly consider this article fair? The only real criticism of FR in it is tempered with a simple explanation which puts it in context! Obviously a right wing puff piece!

</sarcasm>

You can expect the usual Republican Party apparatchiks and Bushies,

"Hey honey, they mentioned me in a magazine article and again on the internet. Kewl"

Then there's TLBSHOW, king of the vanity posts; _Jim, much-hated government apologist; Michael Rivero, conspiracy hunter du jour; Inspector Harry Callahan, who believes the moon landings were faked and is FR's resident extreme right-wing wacko and Murraymom, FR's best-known and best-loved liberal gadfly.

Heads up!

Yep, he must've hung around a while to get this much accuracy in the review. Thanks for posting.

(One question though: will Registered's head be too swelled now to get through the door?)

Hmmm? I wonder if Barton Wong left out Hitlery on purpose?

Not a bad piece at all and very fair to boot. I especially like the paragraph about Dowd.

Thanks Barton Wong!

It goes a long way to explain many aspects of Free Republic that have confused me in the short time I've been registered. Maybe this should be included in the Welcome Newcomers thread? Best regards,

That a forum like FreeRepublic can survive and thrive(at a time where most political pundits say that public views of political discourse in America today has reached an all-time high in cynicism and apathy)is good news for all Americans.

The audience-wisdom-participants seem small---miniscule!

Pretty good.
Shows the diversity of opinion and beliefs.
More emphasis could have been made on the esprit de corps, in that, though we often disagree on tactics, we will muster our troops when called upon.

Apparently you didn't see this the first time it was posted in August?

I believe that this is a reasonably accurate description of Free Republic, for a change.

A lively and controversial discussion of what direction Americans want their country to take is needed now more than ever, and agree with the Freepers or not, political Web forums can provide a great public service.

At the very moment that Bill Bradley was wailing about "the poor man's soapbox" being overwhelmed by "the rich man's wallet" FR and the others were rising to prominence. TV and radio ads are the venue of "the rich man's wallet"--but FreeRepublic enables any interested individual to read my insightful posts without charge. ("He that tooteth not his own horn getteth it not tooted.")

Why Broadcast Journalism
is Unnecessary and Illegitimate.
