I'm asleep at this hour. Your post woke me up. Not a good start.

FreeRepublic seems to regard conservative blogs and Webzines as their personal enemies

Interesting. The blogger section of Free Republic must be some kind of cleverly disguised trap. Nefarious as hell, that.

CBS draws research from from conservative blogs

I think you have it backwards. Bloggers reword stories from news sources.
How many folks have you on your research staff? Good, bad or indifferent, what's the total?

FreeRepublic plays up CBS and gives them advertising revenue.

A member of Free Republic posted an article from CBSNews.
Hardly "playing them up". The article is excerpted due to copyright restrictions.

Anyone want to ‘splain-it-to-me?

I just did. Pay attention.

Also pinging the one who seems to be FR’s resident thug in chief, humblegunner.

Actually, that's "Blog Overlord". I don't wear the brass anymore though. Not your business why.

The fact is that news sources don't come here promoting their own material.
Some bloggers do. Pimping, I think it's called. Excerpting their own material to get hits.

That's bad, Mmmkay? That's using Free Republic as an advertising tool to profit from blog hits.

It seems some folks don't like that.

It's sad that this bothers you. Really sad and I'm sorry about it.

Now go to sleep, son. You have a busy day tomorrow.

I don’t believe in ad hominem attacks.

Humblegunner, I will point out that your post (to which this is a reply) is thoroughly warped and is akin to the product of a sociopath.

Humblegunner speaks of the blogger forum, but persecutes posters in it, along with JimRob’s troll posse.

Who needs subversives when you shoot yourself?

(Humblegunner, how did my post wake you up? Some sort of alarm?)
