Kathleen Parker has sure changed her tune from a year ago. Sounds like Hitlery's goons paid Ms. Parker a visit...

All of which brings me to my premise that the blogosphere isn't just a challenge to journalism in its currently stagnant state, but a potential boon to problem-solving of a higher order. The beauty of the blogosphere is that it is self-igniting, self-propelling and self-selecting, a sort of intellectual ecosystem wherein the best specimens from various disciplines descend from the ethers, converge on an issue and apply their unique talents.
Though virtually newborn, the blogosphere has blossomed exponentially in a matter of Earth-time seconds, from a few random voices to a mighty and diverse chorus of sometimes spectacular talent. Bloggers are the Big Bang of the Information Age.
looks like sumb'dy squeezed her balllllls! He, he
So much for the ratssssy "credibility"
We all marvel at the ease with which we can access information, whether reading government documents previously available only to a few, or tracking down old friends and new enemies.
It is this latter our new enemies that interests me most. I dont mean al-Qaida or Osama bin Laden, but the less visible, insidious enemies of decency, humanity and civility: the angry offspring of narcissisms quickie marriage to instant gratification.
This entire post of yours is deep and poetic. Well done!
We live in marvelous times. I'm of the opinion that the Internet is the best thing to happen to our freedom of expression since the invention of the printing press. It's just a whole lot faster.
And, self-correcting. Print something erroneous on FreeRepublic and no matter how good it sounds to conservatives, it will eventually be challenged. Don't hold your breath waiting for the MSM to correct their errors.
