"New approach?" Sound like the same old Salon.com to me!

The Republican National Committee was quick to rebut Salon.com's new approach. Spokeswoman Mary Ellen Grant questioned whether people would take the website seriously with Blumenthal overseeing news content.

Here's what I would have said -- nobody to the right of Susan Sarandon took them seriously in the first place!

Here's the last financial item on Salon's finances. It seems the media even accepts the money pit vampire that is Salon, as there's been a dearth of articles about it.

Less Than Ten Cents on the Dollar ( Salon.com owes the White House $, can't pay )

An attack on Bush, and that's supposed to be their new tack?

I thought when you retool a business you're supposed to have a better revenue plan. Am I to understand their new plan is to take with the Democrats?

If they win they lose. If they lose they lose. What motive can I be missing? Are they a business or are they just staving off dissolvement?

It starts to make me dwell on the observations of detective Sherlock Holmes. To wit: "When you have eliminated the impossible, whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth."

This stuff will only resonate with the 'Hate-Bush' crowd, who are already nuts. Big deal.

LOL.....oh Sidney Blumenthal, of Monica's a stalker fame!

Didn't he warn Tony Blair not to support President Bush's stance on the war against terror?

Salon is being kept alive through the next election by infusions of leftist cash, loans and credit. The new liberal radio talk netword, ditto.

This is how liberals are getting around campaign finance laws. Every ounce of left-wing gold is being thrown in every way possible into winning the White House in November.

Should President Bush win, the liberal propaganda organs will wither away and die. They are kept viable right now as part of the desperate Democrat/socialist/commie/liberal/leftist effort to win in November.

"Despite being viewed by 3 million people each month and having 74,000 paid subscribers, the website has struggled financially and has a debt of more than $80 million, according a New York Times report in January."

Where do they get these viewer numbers?

How many people view FreeRepublic, how many registered viewers/contributors do we have, and how much cash do we burn through each year to support that?

the first in a series of articles planned under the direction of Sidney Blumenthal, a former aide to President Bill Clinton.

First lie, Sid 'Grassy Knoll' Blumenthal never worked for Bill, he was always Hillary's creature.

"This disturbing report from the Bush Pentagon, and others that will follow, are part of Salon's new emphasis - what we call 'Unintimidated News,' " Blumenthal said in a statement.

Try 'Unmitigated Bile'.

Never forget that Warnock of Adobe and Jobs of Apple and a third character from Hambrick and Quist set up Salon originally to help defend Clinton in the year of Lewinski.

At least Sid is openly working for them now, back then he just fed them oppositioin research direct from Hillary and the White House.
