Regardless, his slant is generally more interesting.

I agree. His heart’s in the right place.

I was just pointing out that he really doesn’t strain his back doing the heavy journalistic work himself.

Limbacher cracks me up!

He basically changes the title of other people's articles, adds a few "Newsmax has learned..." statements to it, and then puts his name on it.

I'd say that he was ripping off his employer if he wasn't his own boss!

Dead, what do you think a real reporter should do? He gave the NY Daily News credit. Want him to fly to Delaware before reporting on the story? After a brief search I can't even find the story on the NY Daily News site. So it appears to me NewsMax could either link to perhaps the Miami Herald, so more FReepers could read what the Brady Campaign has to say, or re-write the story themselves. He substituted four paragraphs of statement from Seniors United Supporting the 2nd Amendment (though I admit I never heard of them before). And compared Brady's hypocrisy to that of Rosie O.

People on FR shouldn't lightly scorn reporters like those on NewsMax or WND -- they do much of the heavy lifting that allows us to read the news for free. (probably without permission, may I add)
