Myopic Chutzpah
Nicole Brodeur, in the midst of offering something of an apology for stepping outside the bounds of journalistic propriety when the Karl Rove resignation was announced, evidently couldn't resist using the moment to take a potshot at bloggers.
She writes: "The hallowed halls of journalism that I was privileged to enter more than 20 years ago are looking more and more like the New York subway. The walls covered in bloggers' scrawl, the platform crowded with any yahoo with a camera and an open mike. All are headed to your computer screen or television for the 15 seconds you'll give them before moving on to the next hot spot."
Whatever. It would more impressive to read such criticisms from someone who is behaving well.
