I used to post almost exclusively archaeological/anthropology articles for many years. I took so many 'hits' from the really religious folks that I quit posting for a year and nearly quit Free Republic completely.
I've recently begun posting (again) about economics, finance and investing and frankly don't know much about this area and learn much from the comments that folks post on these threads.(I'm a retired chip-maker)
I do post some articles that some people think are screwy and two minutes later someone is complimenting me on posting such a wonderful article, the same article. (How can that be?)
It is really discouraging when people like you jump up and down and complain when all you have to do is not read the article.
I don't know why or how you benefit by complaining as you do?
If you go over to the UFO threads, you'll never see my name (ever) on one of those threads...even to complain. You see I don't believe in UFO's but, it's okay by me if some people do and I don't feel the need to harrass them about it.
So, will you please stop whining on the threads I post?
Thank You.
And I'm not suggesting that there isn't lots of informative business news out there. But it just appears you've become a posting bot for this particular blog, complete with the teasers and redirect, for a blog that doesn't even require excerpting.
Am I saying that nothing good comes from a blog? No, some miniscule percent of them provide breaking news and analysis. Heck, even this one may have a gem once in a while, though I'm skeptical (see below). But in those instances when one discovers a gem worth posting, count me among those who say, post the whole thing and let others decide whether to migrate away for more. But to appear to post excerpt after excerpt for the same blog makes one appear to either be the author, or on the blog's payroll.
Now, as to this particular blog:
"Welcome! Business Insider is a new business site with deep financial, entertainment, green tech and digital industry verticals. The flagship vertical, Silicon Alley Insider, launched on July 19, 2007, led by DoubleClick founders Dwight Merriman and Kevin Ryan and former top-ranked Wall Street analyst Henry Blodget."
So this blog is run by two folks who invented popup ads! They are literally in the enemy camp! And here I digress a bit to say that one reason we don't excerpt or redirect from FR (except when required to) is to avoid subjecting FReepers to cookies, popups, flash and malware (the first three which are replete at the Popup Insider, as I will now refer to it).
Anyway, that is my piece and I'll try to back off a bit having said it. You're a good guy and I continue to respect you but hope you'll also try to vary your sources a bit and maybe help FReepers by posting whole articles instead of forcing redirects to questionable providers. But that's your judgment call. Hope you have a great day!
