Would I come under the same attack if I should start posting articles from their site on a regular basis? I can name another member who regularly posts from Town Hall...

I doubt anyone would have a beef with Sean_Anthony if he were a living, breathing, active participant, like you are.

It's the behavior that makes the difference, and which raises people's hackles. Sean_Anthony has been posting about a dozen articles a day from Canada Free Press for years, with nary a comment or reply. That's mighty curious for any Freeper, especially considering that:

1. That site is heavily monetized.
2. It's the only site he posts content from.
3. It is literally ALL he does on Free Republic.

It doesn't take a genius to figure out that he's using FR as a fishing hole, and using excerpts from CFP as bait. Its why he posts so many links per day to that site, and why he never responds or comments. In my opinion, it's only about the clicks to him, which put money in his pocket.

Windflier, you have summarized the contention succinctly! This is precisely what irks people about Sean_Anthony's behavior.
