“a site that merely reposts a YouTube video deserves a straightforward link to the video, rather than requiring FReepers to go off site from Free Republic to watch it.”

Conservative Treehouse reports the news more accurately than so called news sites. I consider Conservative Treehouse to be a news site.

I don't understand your concern about the video. Freepers are not delicate little snowflakes who will suffer permanent damage because they have to link to a video.

It seems like you enjoy arguing just for the sake of arguing.

You're missing the point. Many FReepers, myself included, often are on tablets or small computers that have trouble with blog sites that are filled with ads, some of which cause lockups and other trouble. As a result, if the site you are posting about has a YouTube video, it is considered polite and proper practice to provide a direct link to that video, for those of us who don't wish to deal with the entire blog site just to watch the video.

That's all I'll say about this. I am certainly not arguing for the sake of arguing. If you don't get what I am saying, so be it, read JimRob's posts about blogs in the past. You have been here long enough to know what I'm saying.
