A few years ago, when this website was just beginning to be noticed by the local mainstream press, our founding editor made an audacious statement ... "I drive the debate in this state," Will Folks (a.k.a. "Sic Willie") told a local television reporter in 2009. Apparently Sic's megalomania has

These two places aren't paying us money to pimp them out, although it's safe to say that our founding editor will be angling for some freebies in the very near future. Kidding, kidding ... look, we're clearly not on top of Columbia, S.C. food and culture like our girl The Shop Tart (hollaback, hottie),

A high-ranking staffer in S.C. Gov. Nikki Haley's office recently called the head of a national advocacy group and demanded that the organization's web advertisement be pulled from FITS.

Dear Editor, FITSNews.com is as promised "Unfair and Imbalanced." I doubt that there is a true native of South Carolina amongst your insidious klavern - you do NOT express our SC values. As far as "sick willie" is concerned, any man that f*cks a woman and then violates her womanhood by shouting

RE: Source: Wingo Didn't Take His SAT Exam Dear Editor, Just to give you my two cents worth on your articles. The name is Daryl Gardner from Irmo just so you will know - retired firefighter from Camden S.C. I am a Gamecock fan but I still know things are not always what they seem. The problem

Meet Mary Elizabeth Holmes. She's twenty years old, and she lives in Duncan, S.C. Earlier this month, she was arrested for strong arm robbery after allegedly breaking into a couple's apartment and, well ... beating the crap out of them. "An incident report said that (the male resident), who was

And then there was one ... In the latest testament to our obliteration of anything resembling "competition," FITSNews was the only South Carolina-based political website named to The Washington Post's 2011 list of best political blogs. That's a pretty powerful perch - particularly in light of the

FITSNews will be off the air until July 17. Don't worry ... we're not pulling a "News of the World" and shutting down completely (sorry to disappoint). Our founding editor Will Folks (a.k.a.
