Per Jim:

“I have no complaint if a good conservative blogger posts his own material to FR, not as an excerpt to drive hits and discussion back to his blog, but rather to impart useful information to OUR readers and to promote and join in on the discussion and conservative activism HERE on FR.

If a blogger can’t or refuses do that, and if he constantly complains or fights with our participants over it, then I’d just as soon he doesn’t post here.”

I go to an original link only 10% of the time anyway, if other posters are like me, chances are links posted shouldn’t get that many hits anyway.

Thanks!

I’ve seen the practice criticized previously on FR, and knew there was a problem of sorts. I generally thought someone was getting paid for advertising based upon hits to his blog, and using FR to generate additional hits for personal profit.

But the link helps, and I appreciate the clarification!
