Yes, my flame-retardant suit is on, but this is an honest question. What has happened to the two right sidebars here that used to be very good sources for TRULY breaking news stories? I've seen FReepers try to post actual breaking stories there, and some moderator deletes them from the sidebar, until all there is over there on Breaking News is commie Sunday television talk show posts. What has happened? I know Jim is gone, but I also know that this site needs money support. Crushing the breaking news sidebars is not a good way to get support.
Put Humblegunner in charge!
Jim Robinson TOLD me to put it in Breaking News so people could find it back in 1999. He stood by that for the rest of his life.
So, according to the site owner, it WAS!
My bad, AB. So they are.
I can say ditto to that comment. Now we just lurk from under the rocks... Too afraid to say anything. Good thing we live in a free Republic.
Thanks.
And just so you know, I absolutely agree there should be more Breaking News stories that belong here. Election results, war and peace news, major Trump and Congressional announcements and votes, etc.
