The Lying Leftist Media. They are presumed to be lying and we should assume that what they publish is a lie. The presumption can only be rebutted with the outlet providing clear and convincing evidence they are not lying.

>>>Why post this drivel? <<<

Been asking that for a long time . . . why does it need it’s own thread? Why not include it in the body of another thread . . . “News of the Absurd”

Right now it is the second thread on the page . . . if I were a first time visitor to FR I could conclude that this is just a nicer version of D.U. and surf to the next site.

Another thing, it seems we have stopped using a BARF BAG ALERT.

The way it is setting there without any negative warning, it appears that we approve of the sentiment of the article.

Why post this drivel?

Three reasons:
1. We know what the other side is saying/thinking, better preparing us to respond/rebut.
2. FR doesn’t become an echo chamber.
3. Comic relief.

That's like saying why did BUCKHEAD post Dan Rather's TANG MEMO.
