But the 1-sentence excerpt is a new twist. Getting greedy?
What is the matter with you blog haters? Do you only want to get your news and information from the MSM? Do you want bloggers to post entire articles here on FR to avoid bloggers from getting hits on their sites that might help them make a living for what they do?
This particular thread clearly states it is a Heartland Institute blog, you don’t have to click on it if you are so hateful of blogs. Some of us may enjoy seeing other sites out there in internet land we wouldn’t otherwise know about.
Blogs posts are allowed on FR and have been for many years. Just as we often don’t need the grammer police, we also don’t need a core of blog police roaming threads just to bitch about it.
If you don’t want to read blogs then don’t, but quit ganging up on threads just to cry about it. You might want to read the article and have an intellegent conversation about it. That’s what FR was supposed to be about, getting news and information we couldn’t get elsewhere, especially news from the conservative side rather than the left, which is what this article is, a viewpoint from the right.
