I was listening to the news out of the corner of my ear when I heard FreeRepublic specifically mentioned as a "hate site" about fifteen minutes ago.
Ostensibly the long report was about the Klan using the web to recruit new wackos. Then the focus turned to Casa Maryland, and their director who claimed that calls for his murder had circulated on the internet by anti-immigrant bigots. It was then that the anchor identified FR by name as a hate site.

FR HAS ALWAYS been self-policing.
That is what seperates this site from the rest.
I've seen blatantly offensive responses on a thread pulled in minutes,
and I've seen the mods allow the two or three FReepers who are arguing go at it for a day or two and then pull the whole damn post.
Bottom line, FR is quite possibly the most civilized and heavily monitored forum on the internet.
It certainly is NOT a hate site, as portrayed by BOR and Fox5.

No, this is coming from the MSM getting itchy about who is going to be the next Dan Rather. Mr. Rove has some ducky targets lined up, and they know we cant wait for the go. txflake, you just took fifteen years off of 99% off the msm people in D.C. and N.Y. ...... LOL Newsroom in D.C. and N.Y., I would bet, just called an emergency meeting. I bet there will be a marathon meeting for the next thirty days to discuss preparedness...... LOL ..... that was mean of you ..... LOL ..... congratulations, I salute you!

At the risk of whining - I tried the Report Abuse link yesterday on a message in the archives, but nothing happened. I got no response, so I don’t know if the moderators looked at it or not.

I Thank You. I thank you, and I am not a Mod, nor do I know JR(Sir) personally. The Mods are watching closely, as the Mods always have. I hit the abuse button never, yet (although I did do it by accident this AM), but I know when is necessary, even though I should and do not hit the abuse button. The Mods do what they can, and the Mods do an excellent job. I commend you. I am like most here, I am a poster, who loves this Site. It is one of the countless place on the web where the articles can be spoken of, and dissected for what is the truth, yet the people here who post are the BEST of the BEST (although all public forum do have the disrupters and occasional ‘bad apples’. Again, even though I am not a Mod, you should be Thanked! And I want to be one who has Thanked You. Thank You, Again!
And this is a place of FUN, where poking the RINOs and democrats for their ignorance is a way of life. Thank God for this Site! And Thank You!
Mods, please don't Zap me for talking about you (you people, the Mods are Great).....tucking tail between legs and going to another thread. Am I in before the ZOT? I see fire breathing kitties ahead for some.....I especially like the kitty with the machine gun.....LOL uh oh, I am going to be classified as a hater now.....running not walking away now. Where did my cookies go?.... oh no.....remembering Pack-man and Mr. Bill. Another deflamatory statement by me....my cookies are melting....melting.
The afore comments in no way reflect the views of a majority of Sites on the Web. JR(Sir) is the BEST of the BEST in forum monitoring.....
Thanks again, HAL9000. Your post gave me confidence to post my rant. uh oh, kitties at two o'clock, but All is Well! Except for my punctuation, spelling, and grammar.

Bravo. Where’s Michelle Malkin when we need her? She needs to esplain Free Republic to Bill O or his operatives.

http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1882689/posts Video: Geraldo cringes everytime he sees Michelle [Malkin] on Fox
Posted on 08/17/2007 11:18:51 AM PDT by PajamaTruthMafia
Well, we wouldnt want to make Geraldo Rivera cry. But the fact is, he didnt really address the situation. He once again smeared Michelle by bringing up militias, the KKK and neo-Nazis, to whom Michelle has no links and has never had any links (to whom Geraldo has attempted to link Michelle before), rather than just answer the question of whether deportable criminal aliens ought to be deported. And he brought up In Defense of Internment, mischaracterized it as extolling Roosevelts internment, rather than answer the question at hand. Thats called changing the subject. And he said he cringes nearly every time he sees Michelle on Fox. Well aint that a shame.

I read/hear more hate in my liberal college than I’ve come across on this site....
one word comes to mind...actually, it’d probably be labeled “hate speech”...hehe
To: crusher
Great job catching this piece of grabage news, Crush.
I was watching the FOX 5 NEWS at 10 p.m. too, but went to surf the web at around 10:30, so I missed the clip. This is insane...

MM could tie Geraldo in knots with 3/4ths her brain tied behind her back.
