FR works off bandwith. Excerpting reduces that, and I don’t mind if people pimp their blogs by excerpting instead of posting the whole article. That IMO should be policy at FR to excerpt everything.
The other is the constant GOP bashing when the party is composed of thousands of members, officers, candidates, and officials. That broadbrush gets tiring to listen to.
A couple of reasons why I refuse to donate.
But you’ll use FR and let others pay for it, all the while complaining. *shaking head*

“FR works off bandwith.”
So if users watch a youtube video, play a song, or visit a dreaded blog over their own ISP; FR gets the bill for that bandwidth if the link stems from here?
That is...pretty hard to believe.
That's nice you have that opinion, but the man who set up and runs the web site, along with the adminstrators, views it differently.
FR does not exist for the purpose of driving traffic (read: revenue generation) to your, or anybody elses, blog.

I have no complaint if a good conservative blogger posts his own material to FR, not as an excerpt to drive hits and discussion back to his blog, but rather to impart useful information to OUR readers and to promote and join in on the discussion and conservative activism HERE on FR.
