I remember Lucianne starting her website towards the end of the Clinton impeachment fiasco. I got banned in the first couple of months and have never been curious enough to see what’s changed. I’m surprised it still exists - maybe she has different moderators now.
Fox News and WSJ are Conservative websites???
I usually just read the summary portion, at the very beginning. The articles that are posted aren’t that different from the articles posted here, but FR commentary seems to be more interesting, to me.
That would seem to support your experience, that posters are more restrained. Thanks for your reply.
I go to Lucianne a lot because some of their members find great news articles to post, some on pretty obscure sites i would have never seen. Of course same here.
Probably half the articles I post here is something I found there first and crosspost here. (I also find some gems on ace of spades blog)
The discussion is relatively tame because the rules don’t allow you to address each other directly, except by posting #.
Thanks, I remember seeing that post.
To the right of Attila the Hun, are we :-)
Lucianne Goldberg?
No disrespect, but does anyone still click her site?
Its been years since I toured the place. All articles that I find on FR. Along with pesky ads and cookies.
Everybody got banned. That’s how I got here.
I never considered Drudge conservative, just honest, without adding bias......he’s a hero to me.....
I’m somewhat amazed at how effective regime affiliate Google is at searching FR.
But that may be an indicator of interest from the regime.
Many FREEPERS are proud to wear a t-shirt that says—
I WAS BANNED
BY LUCIANNE
I really don’t like her site. The number of ads is ridiculous, distracting and annoying.
I WAS BANNED
BY LUCIANNE too
and glad, would have never discovered FR
I completely forgot about Lucianne...she's still around, eh?
I was banned in October of 2004. My offense? Inquiring about another user, who had also been banned. Happily at FR ever since.
DITTO-But I almost never go to Lucianne
