Head Freeper Hates Bloggers?
Found this interesting piece while perusing some blogs, it
seems there is a "blogger purge" going on over at FReekville.

"Why Is Free Republic’s Jim Robinson Attacking Conservative Bloggers?"

I think those people are majorly confused, they even hate each other!

4. FR's meritocracy is crazy. 5 posters dominate the front page with posts that only have few replies.

5. I don't get it. If they don't like blogs
And they don't like the media.. what will be posted there?

Pictures of cats and trailer park reviews?

6. I can think of a couple reasons he may hate them:
1. Might cut into annual FR 10-month long fundraiser;

2. Freepers that might see those blog sites might realize that there *is* post 1997-era web programming;

3. Other blogs might have free message boards without dictatorship rule;

4. "Blogger" has too many syllables (he hates those).

Probably could have done a Top 10, but he's just not worth the time.
