What law are they getting around? Publishers check words for accuracy so as to not engage in libel. A news paper cannot be held to libel or defamation standards for opinion pieces. And the certainly are not accountable for oped pieces by readers.

Jim is not accountable for all the nonsense, lies, and misleading crap you find here. Jim can also ban any of us. Good for Jim and good for Facebook.

That is what I said earlier. Free republic is a forum or at least is should be. Who Jim can ban is the question at hand. People that are disruptive are not allowed on any type of forum which means Jim would have that right to ban them.
