Why Bloggers Rule
Because it's gotten to the point that ordinary people ask better questions then the journalists do...
Head over to last week's Ask the White House. Everything you ever wanted to know about the administration's point of view, direct from the “Director for Iraq” on the National Security Council.
Remember, I started blogging because I found that the media couldn't even report what the administration said correctly. So whether you agree with the administration or not, you should at least know exactly what they said, not what's its been reported they said.

Exactly!
I remember when I used to watch television. Over a year or so ago, the news people were just starting to “get” blogs. They (the journalists) spent so much time talking about “bloggers” and “blogs” and the Internet blogosphere that you’d think somebody had smacked them over the head with a virtual frying pan to knock some sense into them so that they finally would see the light.
The people with brains realized about oh, 11 months into the new millenium, that the media was becoming corrupt with the politics. Our little blogosphere world has been quietly built upon a fairly solid infrastructure.
It’s nice that people can have their opinions exactly as they want to portray them, (or to have them interpreted) not necessarily biased by some media person’s “filter.”

(edit — sorry if this posts twice, but the comment did not show up? maybe I may have hit preview when I thought I’d hit post)
