Why shouldn't they make money for reporting local news?
- gerdesj 4y agoBy repotting I take it you mean reposting. Noting someone else's original content and fluffing it up is sort of fine. Provided the fluffing involves original investigation then all OK but I doubt this is. The original source is generally the best source to quote, not an aggregator.
- zoklet-enjoyer 4y agoReporting, not reposting. Forum Communications did a big push against marijuana legalization in ND a few years ago when I think they should have stayed neutral. And I don't like some of their columnists
- ars 4y agoSo because you disagree with them you prefer they didn't exist? You don't think they have a right to their opinions, and the right to make some money?
- TylerE 4y agoYou are not appreciating just how far right some of these small rural outlets have swung. Some of ‘’em make Pravda look legit, and I’m only barely exaggerating.
- karaterobot 4y agoTo be fair, there are many excellent news outlets which were further to the right of Pravda.
- ars 4y agoWait, are you seriously implying that if someone is far right they don't have the right to speak?
- TylerE 4y agoI do not believe corporations should have the right to free speech. Look into the crap Sinclair is doing making local anchors a go in corporate-written screeds word for word , while speaking as if it was their personal opinion.

- coldacid 4y agoGiven that R and T are at lot closer on the keyboard than S and T, I'm pretty sure that "repotting" is supposed to be "reporting".

- oogali 4y agoThis is not an aggregator. The bottom of the article states that this is the original source. The previous poster meant “reporting” not reposting as you interpreted.
