 The Internet and Political Jihad

[theDentist]

...the power of the mainstream media (MSM) in the United States is being seriously challenged by a mostly ragtag army of outsiders armed with little more than the internet.

Somehow reminds me of the Redcoats and the Minutemen. And we all know who won that war. :)

Transcript of Matt Drudge's 1998 Remarks Before the National Press Club

 

 Targeting CNN's Saddam Propaganda

 

 REALNEWS.COM (Michelle Malkin Alert) -- The resignation of CNN executive Eason Jordan last Friday night caused near-fainting spells in the journalism world. And now the backlash against the blogosphere — the legions of Internet citizen journalists who pressured Jordan to come clean about controversial remarks he made at a World Economic Forum panel in Davos, Switzerland on Jan. 27 — has begun.

 The way the media is circling the wagons on this is starting to look like their reaction to the Swift Boat Vets.

 

 Blogger Goes After Gannon/Guckert -- the bloggers on the Left are dragging their side to the outer limits of kookery.

 

 Eason Jordan genuflects to Fidel Castro (March 10, 1999)

 

 Mom, Dad-It's All Your Fault (Updated!)(Capt. gets hate mail from Journalist)

 

 Journalist Union to Protest Blogs -- This is rich stuff. Journalists attacking the First Amendement rights of their detractors. ALL of the cover is off now...

 

 Columbia Journalism Review Still Doesn't Have Clue about the Outing of Eason Jordan -- Expect a concerted attack within the next several months.

I see already how they are going to attack. First, they'll try to smear the players by pointing to the so called rabid fans. After seeing that will not work, they'll try and plant a player or a bogus issue to try and smear the credibility of all bloggers. It is all so very predictable.

 

Power of the BlogoSphere:

Serfing the Web --I missed it when it was broadcast, but Trey Jackson has video of Jeff Jarvis’ appearance on CNN’s Reliable Sources with Washington Post journalist Howard Kurtz: Jeff Jarvis - ‘The Story is not over’. It’s edited to show only the sections with Jeff and he makes very good points, especially in his answer to the absurd “Blogs=McCarthyism” charge, raised by Kurtz. Here’s Jeff’s post at buzzmachine about the show: Serfs at the news cathedral’s gates.

 Now that everyone has access to a press -- the internet -- anyone you talk to could be a Wolf Blitzer in sheep's clothing.
Welcome to the age of transparency.

 The Legacy Media Is Mad As Hell and They're Not Going to Take It Anymore -- Michelle Malkin reports that Bertrand Pecquerie (who?!? exactly) says that bloggers are "the sons of McCarthy." And he doesn't mean Charlie. Meanwhile, this just pisses me off. The Tulsa World has sent letters threatening dubious legal action against Oklahoma bloggers for printing excerpts of their stories.

I started to post a lengthy comment here, but I ended up posting it all on my own site: Blogging principles to cover your ass and make sure that what you're excerpting falls under the fair use provision of copyright law. Without knowing more about the specific articles the Tulsa World found to be infringing -- and they don't seem to say -- it looks like they're probably overreaching and trying to cow this blogger into submission.

 

http://skalpyl.blogspot.com/

 If I were to follow a particular stream of thought in the blogosphere, I'd call the 'MSM' the 'LM' - the 'Legacy Media', an old dinosaur being beaten into extinction by the nimble feet and jaws of the new wave of news, the bloggers.
