I wouldn’t want to see Free Republic sold to the highest bidder!

Me neither -- since FR is fine just the way it is. On the other hand, if a suitable buyer comes along with the right amount of money, it could be beneficial.

There’s too much media concentration already!

In my heart, I tend to embrace that since we all pull for the "little guy". Looking at it pragmatically though, the beauty of an unfettered free marketplace is that a willing buyer and a willing seller can agree on a price without regulation prohibiting such a deal.

In many ways, media concentration has been very good since resources can be more strategically allocated with greater efficiencies. As a stockholder in a media company, I've been nicely rewarded by the growth as a result of such consolidation.
