Red-Headed Stepchildren Unite!
In today's NYT, there was an article detailing the impact that a handful of bloggers have had on conventional media, crediting (if that's the word) certain webby types with prompting the ousters of Dan Rather, et al, from CBS, as well as CNN's chief news executive. We've already seen the opening salvos of Old Media's onslaught against the Bloggers' Revolution (which, incidentally, is the first revolution to be conducted entirely by people in their underwear), so this is just further sabre-rattling on the part of credentialed media-types.
For our part, we've definitely tried to contribute to carving out the muckraking niche that the blogosphere increasingly inhabits. By constantly reporting on the great records that Greg Weeks is making, we've managed to break the scandal that the print media are dubbing "awesomegate." That should take him down a peg.
