Still blogpimping on the back of mass-death, eh?
I’ve contacted the moderator about this subject of blog pimping. I have maintained that as long as it’s a qaulity, timely blog link (since it’s within the blogger catagory) which PROMOTES the conservative cause and additional discussion, then WHERE the information comes from should not be an issue (as long as it’s legit info., that is). Do you agree? As long as the poster engages in honest dialouge, is he still considered to be “pimping” within the above parameters? I have yet to hear a response.
This person is taking content created by others (NBC News), embedding it in his blog, and then pimping that content here for blog hits.
I’m glad there was no internet in 1945, or scum like this would be embedding Dachau footage from the War Department and trolling FR for hits for self-aggrandizement and profit.

“This person is taking content created by others (NBC News), embedding it in his blog”
Drudge, Breibart and others do this as well, are they wrong for doing it? Do you want all your news to come from NBC?
You also did not adress the following:
As long as it’s a qaulity, timely blog link which PROMOTES the conservative cause and additional discussion, then WHY are you making an issue out of where the information comes from, ESPECIALLY since his blog does have additional commentary unique to the original video.
Even the moderator was perplexed because his posts is within the blogger sub-catagory! Sounds to me like he’s following the rules.
....posts are within....
Don't the blog pimps have the most conservative screen names?
If I start a blog, I'm going to get a fresh FR Screen name:

Worse than that. There was no video at the link.
