Last spring we took an Alaskan cruise. It was fantastic. We took a tour to a hunting lodge in Juneau called the Taku Lodge. While we were there the guide told us that the glacier across the lake, called Hole in the Wall Glacier, grew more than 20 feet last year. He also said that several glaciologists traveled out to see it because it was the fastest growing glacier in the world. In short, glaciologists are not exactly sure what makes glaciers grow or retreat. For instance, the glacier next to Hole in the Wall glacier is retreating, but at a much smaller pace than Hole in the Wall glacier is expanding.
This is great diversion if you have a few minutes to spend studing how the paranoia of some (i.e., liberals) deals with the new strength of bloggers and Internet technology disseminating the news.
I think it shows how much they fear the automation of news and believe it will corrput it, like it's not corrupted already. What would the news be like without a liberal spin?
I welcome this new concept of newsgathering, even though it is fictional. What are your thoughts?
