What is the difference between news and blogs? Why is this muslim blog ( http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1345012/posts ) considered news, but an American Newspaper that is recognized as such by everyone else is considered a blog?

I was under the impression that you had not taken a position on Terri Schiavo. A handful of Freepers have taken the liberal position on this, and have trolled these threads pushing their liberal agenda. I've always held out some hope that you would take an interest, because that would bring a lot of positive attention to the cause. In just a few days Terri's estranged husband will probably begin her extermination, and it appears you've taken an interest. Unfortunately, you've chosen to hinder the efforts to save Terri's life, by doing an end-run around your own policies. As the deadline gets even closer, will you put more restrictions on us?

I don't you should be making unfounded accusations. A moderator thought the website in question was a personal news site and accordingly moved the article to the Bloggers & Personal forum. I was asked about it later and said that this particular site could be posted into the news forum. That should be the end of it.
Thanks
