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

Titles cannot be copyrighted, although they can be trademarked.

It’s necessary to be able to search for an article.

However you can add a few words in parenthesis after the title or even maybe include your revision (and note it as such) at the top of your article/excerpt. It would even be visible in the “Headers” view of new articles.

It’s LONG past time that conservatives start doing this. Why do we accept the lying MSM narrative and definitions? Why don’t we start doing the job that a truthful editor would do and remove the leftist newspeak from these articles.

We would end up with countless double post because the search feature would not work.

So instead of lying there and taking it, fight back.

The (“Barf Alert”) following the title is often used here, and it works well.

No, add the real title AFTER putting the leftist title in.

And where would you find this "real" title?

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

That's what the comments box is for. Doing it on the title line will lead to copyright infringement and then we lose the ability to post from that publication. How is this a smart move?

Look around for the same news from another source.

************

The real title is what the publisher or writer uses. Any other
title is a fake title as it isn’t the original. What is your purpose
in messing with the FR rules?

Perhaps my setting are wrong?

I don't see the contents of the OPs comments block in any of the forum blocks I've selected, nor in any of the pings shown with either the New Pings or the All Pings option.

It would be nice to know what I'm clicking on, an accurate article vs the Mintrue title.

Enlighten me as to how I can do this without clicking on a ping that takes me into the middle of a long series of comments that I would then have to scroll all the way to the top to read OPs take on the story?

I'd like to know about the veracity of article from the posted Mintrue title AND the title an honest source would have used at one glance without clicking on it.

Does this makes me a bad person in your eyes?

If you feel the need to add a qualifier, use brackets [], NOT parentheses, as they are sometimes used in real titles. We need to keep the titles complete to avoid double posts.

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

Where do you find them?

Can't get away from them on FR. "Know your enemy" is the excuse and mantra. These people know more about the enemy than about the truth they should be fighting for. As I try to tell people repeating lies STRENGTHENS the lie, like Hitler once said.

IMO, a single daily post with the headline, "The Lying Leftist Media Lied a Whole Lot Again Today" would suffice.

Then we could get on with the issues of what the Patriotic Right is doing to defeat the Delusional Lying left and restore our Free Constitutional Republic.

The time-tested way is to post [Barf alert] or just [barf] after the offensive headline.

Great Idea!

Can you start tomorrow? Will it be something like Godzilla's Threat Matrix, or were you just planning on posting a headline with no examples every day?

Who needs examples????

We’re bombarded with the Delusional Lying Leftist Media’s lies every day just about everywhere we turn. Can’t get away from the “examples”.

So when your neighbor says I saw _______ on CNN, it must be true! We're supposed to be totally blindsided, and only able to mumble incoherent non sequiturs?

Heaven forbid we'd read about it on FR, and have a dozen people cite references to refute what CNN says.

Far better to have your neighbors look at you grunting like an ignorant Neanderthal.

Why ruin a perfectly good stereotype, eh?
