I tried to post an article from Zero Hedge; 10 things Big Oil says Biden can do to lower gas prices.
FR response was Zero Hedge, No thanks.
So if CNN or Gateway Pundit had published the article, FR would have been ok with the post ?
been that way for a while
zerohedge would be top of my list for sites to be restored on here.
I don’t know why they are banned.
They post a lot of economic articles that reveal things not shown elsewhere.
Fakeway Pundit will rip it off shortly.
Give ‘em a day or two.
Jim Hoft posts garbage far more often. Like the “FBI” sticker headline when the sticker said “Abolish FBI.” He made no corrections to the article.
Wasn’t there a list of “banned publications” posted here on FR, years ago?
Please see the FR Excerpt and link only list (not fully updated...but it’s a reference)

I’ve experienced that, too. I find ZeroHedge to be informative and full of well-researched and well-reasoned articles, especially on economics and finance. I have no idea why Jim puts up the condescending “No thanks” snide remark or why it was banned in the first place. Maybe Jim can explain it.
Zero Hedge is not perfect, but they are not pure garbage either. They do have some good stuff. Banning them was a bad call.
Dang, less than a year away from getting my FR 20 Year .... ah, ah, gold watch .... and I didn’t know....
Shame on me for looking for good articles elsewhere
“Jim Hoft posts garbage far more often.”
Hoft and GP are nothing but garbage, all day, every day.
Thanks. Yes I agree but it’s not my / our site.
I’ll stick around long enough to maybe hear a good reason for banning them.
Thx

Just post it from Zubo bros. For some reason that’s ok.
“Jim Hoft posts garbage far more often….”

Yep. In my younger (and more gullible) days, I made some poor IRA investment decisions based upon some of their more gloomy prognostications. Live and learn.
One of the reasons I’ve not logged in, posted, or donated here in a long time.
This is a trash site compared to ZeroHedge.
I logged in just to respond to you. I will now log out for a few more years.
Is jim hoft on zero hedge?
Zero Hedge is pure garbage. They do not have some good stuff.
Banning them was a great call by Jim.
....Hoft and GP are nothing but garbage, all day, every day....
Fully agree, won’t read anything from them but at least like the choice.
Wow. Didn’t expect to see Fox News on the list.
Don’t go to the effort
