Blog Attack!

"Forbes has an awful article bemoaning how terrible and innacurate blogs are. Of course, they’d just call me unprofessional for saying that.
The article makes no effort to note the benefits of blogs, or the many professionals blogging. To them, every blogger is a scam artist, and every blog target is an angel, even when the targets are liars being outed and the bloggers are celebrated journalists.
The article even indicts Google and Yahoo as co-conspirators, just because their advertising pays the medium’s bills, which is absurd since the average unproffesional blogger doesn’t make money!
I could not locate any portion of the article dedicated to good bloggers. Hmm, doesn’t good journalism require balance? Guess Forbes doesn’t have the same standards?"
