Not exactly the cream of the media crop.

Altoona Herald??? ROFL! Nothing that is newsworthy ever happens in Altoona, PA.

[central_va]

As a suggestion put the list on the form when creating a thread.

Bump for future reference and to keep the full time staff charged with the responsibility of making sure their stuff doesn't get used busy. Ought to post those names randomly in replies to threads on here every day. Just post the website name. Search engines will find it and keep them buys.... :)

It is an interesting question:

If I rent a billboard on I-95 and print the first paragraph of a bloomberg article and say buy bloomberg magazine or go online and read the whole article. Could they sue me for that? Same thing right?

[southernsunshine]

I read the article and a couple of things come to mind: The jobs many Americans used to take for granted are gone and they aren't coming back, and women have taken over the workplace.

The article mentions women taking nursing positions in response to the changing economy. That is wrong. Nursing has traditionally been a female dominant field, and as a matter of fact, not too many years ago there was a huge push to get men into the field.

The article also mentions the idea of modifying SS disability being floated. It's past time for that to have been done. The number of people who don't want to work, but still want to "draw a check" through SS disability has to be staggering. In my previos life I have seen the whole "out" through disability from the inside. The number of people I've encountered trying to get go out on disability, who aren't disabled, is an eye opener. The overwhelming majority of the cases I encountered weren't disabled, they just don't want to work. It's disgusting.

Your thoughts on the article?

I can’t comment I am on double secret probation.

[southernsunshine]

LMAO! When has that ever stopped you?! At first I thought the author of the article must be a feminazi, but then I looked and it’s authored by a male (could be one of those feminine males...lol!)

If freerepublic has a known list of links that are prohibited from using, why can’t an automatic warning be given while we’re trying to post?

I got a block when I tried to post an article from LewRockwell.com, but it was over a different issue. Still not quite clear why.

"Nothing that is newsworthy ever happens in Altoona, PA."

Wadabout when trains jump the track on horseshoe curve?

[danielmryan]

Thatnks for the link. I saw American Thinker on there now. I guess FR was just a stepping stone for them...

[BlazingArizona]

And shouldn’t the Las vegas Review-Journal be on that list too? If you quote anything from it, they sue your ass off.

[null and void]

I see absolutely nothing wrong with that pic...

[50mm]

This is at the top of the page at the link I posted:

Note: Don't post anything at all from the Las Vegas Review Journal or anything from organizations run by Stevens Media, LLC or RightHaven, LLC until the lawsuit brought against us by them is resolved.

"Thanks for posting this list."

Second that!

[matthew fuller]

Not Guilty!

[goat granny]

I wouldn’t be arguing with myself at 60 MPH if the darn voices in my head would shut up...I am right and they are wrong....gg

[Vendome]

yep.

Dang!

No way Laz is going to hit that before me!
