I'm not sure what you really want except the old forum back. But I don't suspect that will be.

Go to this link which is the lastest page for the News/Activism Forum. Then set your preferences, etc for which things you want displayed in the right hand column,( example; breaking news; front page; extended news; or whatever). You should then be able to have the latest post plus the items you selected on one page. Of course if you want to view one of the other forums (General, Campaign 2002, etc) then you'll have to click on them and set them up.... Good luck

what I can't figure out is this, and excuse my abysmal ignorance, but there used to be "Articles" and "Posts" now there is just "Threads", whatever that means.

I used to check out the articles for latest news, and then posts for what everyone was gossiping about, usually finding the "crazy" thread of the moment which was always good for some fun.

Now I am just confused . . .

Thank you. I went to preferences, and have already got the topics set up on the right of the page, but I still have to scroll a lot to find breaking news. Near the top right corner there is a list of "my topics," but it does not display breaking news either. It looks like this:

My Forums Campaign 2002
General Interest
News/Activism
Religion
VetsCoR

If I could get Breaking News to show in THAT list, it would make things a lot better. Again, thanks.
