I looked for a long time to find an outlet that was not biased. I thought I found that in the Free Press. Now I am not so sure about the lack of bias. I am disappointed in many of the articles I have listened to and read.
I am interested in real news. I don't need to know the private lives of the journalists I am reading; that includes whether there are divorced or not, have children or not, are homosexual or heterosexual, whether they are Christian or Muslim or Jew, etc. I am looking for the most objective and unbiased news I can find. And finding that is very difficult.
I just listened to your interview with Sheryl Sandberg. You are making rape about what happened October 7th. There are still 30 men held prisoner at Guantanamo. Rape occurred over the past 22 years at that prison. Prostitutes were brought in and seduced the naked Muslim prisoners. This is rape during war time and no side is innocent of these crimes. The United States has historically supported several dictatorships and undermined democracy in different countries. Right after 911 innocent muslims were murdered and told to go back to Iraq. The U.S. has looked the other way throughout history. Migrants are told to go back to Mexico/South America. Blacks are still told to go back to Africa. These massive injustices are not relegated to any one population or religion. Native Americans still live on reservations.
During this interview you had lots to say about your personal beliefs as a Jewish woman. Toward the end of the interview Sheryl spoke about the innocent women in Gaza, honor killings, Palestinian women threaten by Hamas. She included women of all religions being held down or held back. She spoke about a 2 state solution and citizenship for non Jews in Israel. I watched as you sat silent with you arms folded around you stomach. You did not respond once to this. You were silent. Is this the way an unbiased journalist behaves?
The injustices are profound. After WWI, the atrocities committed on the post war Germans starved millions of innocent Germans. I think the United States' punishment of German's after WWI set up WWII. I look at the current political landscape and I wonder if we are going down a similar path.
I agree with Sheryl Sandberg, it is the polarization and division that is doing harm. An "us vs them" attitude will only leave us with winners and losers. We need more people searching for a "win/win" solution. Finding the middle way is not easy. I do hope the Free Press is up to the task.
Ms. Seeley drinks heavily from the far left Kool Aid - the problems of the world are because of western democracies! If the facts don't fit the narrative they didn't happen, etc.
Hi. I got an annual subscription to the Free Press by my dear friend, Isabel Margolin. What does a subscription offer? I often read articles of the Free Press and get emails including those articles. I was able to read articles before I became s subscriber. Is there anything else I am missing? Just for me to know. And, I love your work! Thanks
I would like to submit a short piece as wither a letter or opinion piece. I cannot find who to send it to at The Free Press. Would someone please let me know?Thanks.
I am really upset! I sure hope someone gets back to me......my subscription with you runs
5/13/23 thru5/13/24.....I have not received mail from you for at l and1/2 weeks and having trouble contacting someone to help me! #D2731FE1-0003. When I tried to subscribe again
Bari, Bravo on The Free Press and the website. The aggregation of important news, stories and thinkers of our time is a GIFT! I miss thumbing through a newspaper with well thought out and researched articles pointing me toward topics I should care about and helping me to dive deeper into the ones that rule my everyday world of concerns. The team of all-stars that you’ve put together are incredible!!!!! Thank you all for the courage to do this and the effort and thought you put into the beautiful prose you give us. Cheers friends!!

My jaw dropped. I tried to change my new email back to my previous one but the multiple verification change requests email never arrives! How can I switch my email back to my previous one?
Hi anyone at The Free Press, I need help with my account. I tried contacting your Help people at the “Tips” address, no luck. I cannot Edit my comments, and cannot undo things like Hide. I have no idea why. I am clicking on the three little ghostie buttons at the top right hand corner of my posts, but only find Share, Hide, or Report. Please help!
Thank goodness you are here. Bari, I was introduced to you via Megyn Kelly and I fell in love with you and your podcast instantly. I am so thankful that now there are so many out there who are speaking truth. It has been a rough few years but all of you together have answered so many questions and brought some sanity into my world.
thefp.com is doing a great job introducing great writers. But how many $6-8/month subscriptions can readers afford? Every guest writer on fp has their own subscription plan. So far, all deserving our support.
Just searched for "Free Press" on Google. No luck on the first two pages. Tried "Free Press Common Sense", still no luck. Switched to DuckDuckGo and tried "Free Press" again - this site comes up in the 2nd spot, right after Detroit Free Press. On Bing it came at #3. Same on Yahoo. So why so much trouble with Google (95% search market share)? Just a coincidence, I am sure.

Can you advise as to why the comment section On Biden and closing the border is not open? Looks as if it was closed after 49 comments.

I’d love to watch/listen to events like the one tonight afterwards. I cannot attend during the live events.
Are these archived? Where can I find past live events?
Thank you,
