I don't find the gazette to be politically charged or baiting.

You might find the odd quote of the day or editorial that has a political
flavour but it's not a political rag.

Fidonews was once a hotbed of ranting/raving and rebutals and it could
happen again if anyone choose to send in an article. I don't remember now if
those rantings included politics or not.

I read both the fidonews and the gazette, at least a quick glance. I've
never sent in an article and I don't think I ever will. If I have something
to say I choose an echo to say it and it's easy for those who want to rebut
or comment on what I have to say.

I don't think I've ever said anything combative or insulting to you.

You told me my original response to you was an "illogical and loaded
question". Did you consider that to be an insult? It was not meant to be
insulting. It was a question.

 Ttyl :-),
