Though, it's quite clearly sponsored by it. Fedora wouldn't be around
if Red Hat wasn't it's basis (in source, hosting, and all). Fedora
certainly isn't a Debian or Mandrake product. And it's configured and
structured like Red Hat Linux.
No arguments or disagreements about that. It does state that clearly in
http://fedoraproject.org. Red Hat does actively spend a lot of resources
(engineering, money, marketing) which makes a significant portion of
Fedora what it is. I consider that good for both Fedora and Red Hat.
Your opinions may vary.

True, opinions may vary. How ever if, "Red Hat does actively spend a lot
of resources (engineering, money, marketing) which makes a significant
portion of Fedora what it is" then Fedora is a RedHat product.
You have a right to your opinion as you say.
False logic. Red Hat contributes quite heavily to the Linux kernel
(http://lwn.net/Articles/222773/) or to GNOME too which is even hosted
by Red Hat (http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/RedHatContributions). Does it
make it a Red Hat product?
