So you’ve got a blog.
You want to post it in NEWS.
You want to excerpt it and send traffic to your blog.
You want to use Free Republic as a free advertising platform.

Wow.
How the mighty have fallen.

From “America’s Professor” to common blogpimp.

I’ll say a prayer for you.

Glad you enjoyed it. Nice of you to see that a site that aggregates news stories into a single thread is quite valuable-—as it is appearing to be. These ARE news, BTW.

Sorry your pea brain doesn’t understand that a news story is news.

Not QUITE on a single thread, is it?

Evidence so far would indicate that you want to score
some traffic from FR to see your brilliant aggregation.

That's a whore of a different color, isn't it?

Looks about equal so far.

Maybe you should capitulate and stop responding.

Go watch your hit-counter or something.

gunner has a legit point, this time

Your blog has tons of popup ads, and there’s even commentary. Why not just post the same material here so we don’t have to plow through all the aggro-advertisements, comment here and be done with it?

Because uncover took a chance on me; because I have a long-standing writing relationship with them.

But believe me, I’m happy not to post the link.

I just thought people might actually like all the most important news stories aggregated in one place like Drudge used to do, except from a conservative point of view.

It’s a legitimate thought. You might have prefaced your post with that approach to save you the ignominy of humblegunner keying up on you as a blogpimp.

Personally, I think there should be dozens of such conservative outposts because eventually the PTBs will focus on shutting down FR once & for all.

Here is something I have noticed. There are several different news events going unreported in FR because of the copyright restrictions.

I’ll give you a ferinstance: Taiwan.
I noticed a lot of news articles on Taiwan but only ONE going on at the time in FR. So I posted the News roundup. No ads, no commentary on other sites, no sending traffic away from FR, no blogpimping and yet found a way to post around the copyright restrictions.
