I tried to post an article from Zero Hedge; 10 things Big Oil says Biden can do to lower gas prices.

FR response was Zero Hedge, No thanks.

So if CNN or Gateway Pundit had published the article, FR would have been ok with the post ?

Is jim hoft on zero hedge?

If Zero Hedge was a young Filipino boy, he would be.

Excerpt. Just try and post an entire article from Faux.

??? ... Zero Hedge is pure garbage..... hm

And CNN is not? .....it is protected here.

Many here, including myself actually like reading a variety of articles then making our own decisions or better yet letting people commenting here shred away. I can usually find better humor here in the comment section than cheesy stand up videos.

Was that your opus?
Pretty lame if it was...
You are no loss to this site.
Your comments are usually nasty anyways...

In my observation, this almost always has to do with copyright issues, not censorship.

“This is a trash site compared to ZeroHedge.”

Nice of you to give your opinion. Stay away permanently.

I disagree..
GP is the grand funk railroad of news...
Lots of hype, not alot of meat..
But, there is meat in there, you just have to dig for it

Zero Hedge is great. The comments at FR are better than most articles at Zero Hedge and elsewhere.

Instead of posting a Zero Hedge article about the it, here is the American Petroleum Institute's actual response:

Free Republic Post of the American Petroleum Institute letter to Biden.

Whatever...

In your feeble opinion anyway. Every site makes mistakes. Maybe start your own news site and see how it goes.

[markomalley]

It just won’t let you post it more than an excerpt of 300 words or less. You won’t get zotted. Same thing happens if you forget to check the excerpt box

Someone needs some kitty TLC.. 😁😉
Won't call in the VC litter yet, but can have a nice warmup..

...copyright issues, not censorship...

Good point.

[jcon40]

Better source yes. I orig found the story on Investorsblog. Saw they kyped? it from zero hedge.

“Zubu Brothers” “aggregates” news from Zero Hedge & others...and Zubu is allowed on FR. I and other Freepers go there when a ZeroHedge article is needed for FR. Your article:

Hoft and GP are nothing but garbage, all day, every day.

Agreed
