Severe case of Blogophobia.....

You know, I like Humblegunner. I actually agree with him over the blog pimps.

Now, we may disagree on certain matters related to blogs. To me, a blog, if well written and thoroughly researched and based on facts, is as good or even better than anything the driveby/lamestream media put out.

The utterly unethical use of “unanonymous” or “unnamed sources” really, truly stinks and is NOT journalism! But this is one of the major tactics they’ve used to unfairly go after Trump. He has a right to know who his attackers are.

HOWEVER, there are people who post their blogs and are nothing but blog pimps. To that end, you can identify them as they excerpt their OWN BLOGS. WHY? Because they use Free Republic, and Jim Robinson’s free resource to get themselves blog hits, which gets them paid by THEIR advertisers, and give nothing to this site or the owner.

THAT is BAD, and should be opposed by ALL of us.

However, if we go after someone who posts their own blog, doesn’t excerpt it, but rather posts the full article, there should be nothing wrong with that. You don’t have to read it, and it’s not drawing hits from Free Republic to simply post it in its entirety here, in fact, it grows hits on Free Republic.

Now Humblegunner, sir. Pat Fish is my dear friend and an extremely valuable poster on this thread, and has been for as many years as I’ve been posting it. SO, I kindly ask you not to come on this thread and harass her, please.
