"Within a few minutes, I was online visiting Websites I had never heard of before: Free Republic, Little Green Footballs, Power Line," writes Mapes..."
"THIS was her downfall. If she had been in the business for this long and not heard of these sites it is obvious she was a VERY POOR researcher."

Bingo.
Many of us have been doing research regarding news stories for ten and more years using the internet.
This statement just shows how out of touch with reality that Mapes and her cronies have been. IF they had listened to Rush, Hannity or Gallagher even sporadically, they would have been far better informed about us... That the existance of this type of networking was a surprise to them in itelf shows how far they have fallen.
They blindly have gone along for lo these many years believing that they have had a complete monopoly on news and analysis.
They haven't.

EXCELLENT!
Well pride comes before the fall....
It was their arrogance that created the blindspot that allowed them to not see us working infront of their face and to give them a false sense of confidence that they believed they could get away with it like they always have.
WHICH brings me to an important point. We at FR can not become as arrogant and prideful about what we do here. Or we will get spanked the same way.
