The Associated Press has picked up the Fresno Bee article published last week without editing it, as far as I can tell.

Congrats, Jim!

Congrats Jim! Now get us the social network tools the Left has to organize conservatives on the Internet. We can't afford to outmanned and outorganized. EVER AGAIN!

Taken from the article:
“University of California at Santa Cruz psychology professor Anthony Pratkanis sees similarities in Free Republic and Daily Kos, though they come from different ends of the political spectrum. “Both put out the spin that their supporters want to hear; both either exaggerate facts or just plain make them up,” he said.”

University of California....need I say more!

From the excerpt seemed like a pretty fair article too, unlike say something Bill O’Rly would have put out on us.

A nice walk down memory lane. One very notable story was missing however....Rathergate.

We post small-town local papers, and throw up breaking news for all the world to see before the lame-stream media covers it.

Imagine when freerepublic.com becomes a household name...

Many of its postings have a decidedly fringe feel.

I am there!
