You betcha'!! Freepers are everywhere! We not only get news, we get commentary with humor even in the darkest of circumstances!

Besides, where else will you get the Hillary Ol' Crusty update whenever she makes an appearance? On Demoncratic Underground? I think not!

Cool.

(Off topic: For anyone pinging me... My self-search isn't working again. I'm not just ignoring you.)

This is not a Freep. It is merely truth telling!

I have to continually log in, log in, log in if I want to do a self-search. I have not changed anything in my puter or FR preferences. This self-search log in crap occurred during the last software updates by JR.

Interesting. If you visit WorldNetDaily they regularly claim that they're the #1 website. Funny that they aren't even mentioned.

Not only is the FR stat interesting, but the prominence of Fox News is certainly worthy of note.

P.S. Yeah, I voted for FR, too. :o)

Ummm... Can someone go here and tell me if it's showing the "To: Nita Nupress" hits for you? Thank you. Don't want to distract from the thread, but I need to know if it's FR or my computer before I reboot.

Voted in this poll this morning. It pretty much is the truth. FR breaks news and stories more than any of the networks combined.

Thank you! So it's not just me. That helps.

It does show my own replies on my self-search, but those tend to get boring the 2nd time around. ;-)

It's not FR, Nita. I clicked and got your "self-search".

When there is breaking news I go for FreeRp. I don't always trust what I read but I get a leg up on what going on.

The main stream media is headed for concrete wall as far as I can tell. The days of posting a Peter J. or a Dan R. on the air and telling people what they ought to think are over. People now days are sifting though the sources and making up their minds. Any one who depends on a single outlet is likely to be misinformed.

Looks like Drudge will have to put FR's link back up, if he wants to remain credible.
