Remember when the NEA used to ridicule home schoolers.
That is until it they consistently out performed public school children.
Remember when working feminsts ridiculed mothers who did not put their children in day care? that is until it was revealed children in day care were far more likely to have long term mental problems.
The "blogers" that the MSM mediots refer to are going to be "misunderestimated".

This must be the first time a a "castle" was toppled by being bypassed.
The public is simply going around them. Ignoring the mediots and all or advertise with the mediots.
To: sourcery
Aren't those people in front of the castle gates supposed to be wearing pajamas?

I don't know how even Oliphant could have missed all the talking heads I saw on msm last week. I felt they were very smugly welcoming us bloggers to the "mainstream" in spite of our obvious inferiority as "journalists," and pretending that it was only their generosity that is "allowing" us to come out of the dark ages.
My foot! The castle is useless, for the kingdom has emptied!

Remember when the NEA used to ridicule home schoolers? That is the way it always works. Certainly so with the MSM versus bloggers. As pointed out by Arthur Schopenhauer:
All truth passes through three stages.
First, it is ridiculed.
Second, it is violently opposed.
Third, it is accepted as being self-evident.
