I seriously doubt that, after Fresno settled a defamation suit only last week, FR is going to let stand a title calling Reyes a bigot. :D

Anyway, the question was why the earlier article didn't show up on a search, and that's why. Searching "Bigot's Attack" wouldn't have yielded this article.

I've a little time to kill today...

Actually, if one was to search by the newsmax title, the original article would still show up...

Searching for 'Bigot's Attack on Free Republic Costs $60,000'- order by relevance ...

The original post, 'Fresno will pay $60,000 to forum' by Johnny_Cipher on News/Activism 01/13/2004 8:47:45 AM EST with 367 comments, shows up somewhere near the bottom of the list, right above this gem- 'Fart' costs bank 100,000 dollars posted by UnklGene on General Interest (Chat) 08/28/2003 7:57:32 PM EDT with 46 comments

Thank you for that interesting article UnklGene. Love the keywords. :)
