Oh How the Mighty Have Fallen...the Mainstream Media Takes Aim on the Blogosphere

Hey, before we get going here...you need to take a look at this story:

Blogging Not Journalism

Now that you're done...try and tell me that the "big boys and girls" in the major mainstream media outlets aren't a little bit intimidated by what some of us are doing out here.

I have to believe that every single blogger out there has something to say to someone that may stumble across their blog. I hope that I provide a service to some, but the truth be known, this is as much for me as it is for anyone else. This is giving me the venue to share my thoughts with a number of like-minded and not so like-minded people that may be out here searching for some truth. It's nice to run across someone that thinks like you do...and if you happen to cross sabers with others, maybe convert them...or perhaps even just show them that you're not a bible thumping (nothing wrong with faith provided there's some balance), Wal-Mart shopping (yup, count me in here!), red-state living bumpkin.

If the link I provided doesn't get your dander up...whether you're a conservative or a liberal, I don't know what will. Being able to string flowery sentences together in print...or to read them off a teleprompter for 30 minutes each day doesn't make you any smarter, better, or capable of calling a spade a spade as all of us out here behind our keyboards.

Is the keyboard now mightier than the pen? Hmmm...I wonder.

From the high ground and the lunch hour...
