That is exactly what we do here, post news that may not be on TV or radio or in the papers yet. That is our strength. They can't sweep a story under the rug, because we are already on top of it. That is the strength of the internet! The Liberal Media can't ignore all of us all of the time.... Drudge is a master at breaking news stories before they hit the press, too!

Very true. Many news posts on FR never make the media news, but are significant. For example, the Yonkers, NY, "chemical food poisoning" of last evening has not been mentioned on any TV news outlets in my area, including the morning Networks.
