Is there any way that we can post the real title of an item, then the TRUE title of the item, instead of supporting the leftist lies inherent in the headlines?

For example:

Centrist Democrats pose major problem for progressives is the title. can it be followed by the TRUE title? CENTERIST DEMOCRATS ARE A PROBLEM TO BE ELIMINATED BY LEFTIST RADICALS ?

This is important to change the language and perspective

I don’t see why you couldn’t just try it and see if the Mod Squad nods or nukes...

You can get away with adding editorial comments to the title if you put them in parentheses and aren’t too obnoxious about it.

I would love to encourage this for everyone.

We need to take back the language control

No. You can’t. But there is an exception to this rule.

As you know Free Republic does not allow changes to a title. That is a violation of copyright laws.

But you can always add a brief edit/comment as long as it in in parenthesis or bold letters or in some way making it clear that you are commenting on the absurdity of the title.

So basically you want to make up your own fake titles?
To somebody’s copyrighted material?

Until we get a Free Republic change (to the title block section), best way to do this this is to:
Enter the current (Mainstream News) headline,
THEN add a ( and put the Barf Alert, Real Title, or Interpreted Title inside the parenthesis )

I suppose rewritng is an editorial move. But it is needed. WE just recycle their garbage.

I would keep the actual title in the 'title' box, and maybe put your interpretation of the title in the 'body of comment' box.

Mods frown upon altered titles, for search reasons.

Wouldn’t that be nice.

That plus posting LESS lying Leftist articles would also be nice.

One problem is that it will open wide the door for duplicate posts, but maybe add a :SARC or :FAKE NEWS at the end of the title?

If you change the title other posters won’t be able to find the article and we’ll get even more multiple postings of the same article than we already do.

I don’t think changing the title of an article is a good idea because it would make searching for a specific article difficult.

How would you be able search to see if an article has already been posted if the original title has been changed?

You can put it in brackets after the original title.

So basically your hair trigger snarkometer blocks your reading comprehension.

She wants to add an editorial comment after posting the full title.

You, sir, have become boring.

I would be glad if people made any comments at all to their posts.

At the risk of joining the Humble Gunner fan club, we have far too many posts linking to individual's blogs rather than the original source with absolutely nothing added. Those times I do post an article I usually have quite a bit to say about it, otherwise I wouldn't have bothered posting it.

I'm tired of the posts which say "World ends tommo [read more at mymonetizedblog.com]"
