YEAH... (best Dean Voice) Bring it On.
The Way too Liberal Supreme Court is pretty much in love with the net, and the bloggers are Exactly the part they are most in love with.
So it looks like CBS is going to have to get used to having 20 million fact checkers looking over thier sholder from now on. 5 years ago they would have gotten away with thier little fraud. No more. And the fact that they tried just hastens their demise.
Yes, bloggers are just opinionated writers at some far off corner of the internet. Funny how so many millions of Americans are able to discern the truth without the help of CBS. Funny how so many Ma and Pa Polyesters are able to wade thru the trash of sex tales and juvinile rantings to focus on about 100 really good writers who can state their case and prove their theorys with tools at hand. Funny how an informal web of such people can bring down a giant.
Oh yes, CBS Please DO float a proposition to Regulate the Bloggers. Please!!!
Although I think that even CBS isnt that stupid.
I would bet they back off of this. They know they would get crucified...

From now on?
Free political speech has been flowing on the Internet,
and the ARPAnet before it, for over 20 years. CBS is
just a little slow to notice.
They need to worry less about who will be checking on them,
and more about whether CBS will be around for anyone to
bother checking on.
