For an activist site, there sure is very little activism anymore!IMHO...many former activists have been 'moderated away'. AND...the moderators allow too much pablum posted that is totally outside the FR 'mission statement'. These 'chatty articles need to be regulated to the chat forums and/or deleted. Most worthwhile articles/op-eds (posted within the FR guidelines) get buried within minutes by the everincreasing minutia that has crept unto this forum the last two years.
This has diminished and possibly has even negated the once potential FR effectiveness.
