Here's Support for John Peterson
We assume many of you have seen John Peterson's witty endorsement of this site (to the right). At least one other person--Bill Grueskin, managing editor of WSJ.com--agrees with John's assessment of MSM blogs:
Lately, a number of newsmagazine and newspaper sites have started blogs. The results, especially in bigger publications, are often dreadful. Many mainstream-media blogs serve as repositories for the journalistic detritus that wasn't good enough for the print edition. They manage to combine the worst of both worlds: Hemmed in by tradition, they lack the candor and point of view that distinguishes good blogs. Bereft of good material, they lack the depth and quality of print journalism.
