FWIW in general terms non-specific to this web log, you are reading at the head of the curve.
What the MSM lacks, the blogosphere has in spades: energy, momentum, and a growing audience. But what bloggers lack is money — bloggers have yet to find an efficient way to turn their hard work into revenue … and until they do, blogging will always be a lonely sidelight, vulnerable to dying with the next missed mortgage check.
Natural antagonists, the mainstream media and the blogosphere now need to find a way to work together — or both the news and publishing professions will find themselves in an even worse crisis than they are in now, and all of us will be the worse for it. That's why this summit is over-subscribed, and last minute sign-ups were still taking place even as I got on the plane yesterday.
The source? ABC News. I still remember how thrilled I was - they were the first TV network to email me directly about my web logging of the Natalee Holloway case.
Perhaps not all, but many MSM people are reading blogs.


I read a lot, post very little... twice in one night, I guess I'm feeling chatty!
All it takes for one to get "hooked" on blogs is one personal issue. Something that you just have to know more about than what the MSM provides. That has happened for most thinking Americans, I feel like I was late! Demand will certainly increase, you will be paid richly eventually!

Good things come to those who wait.
This is faster than a speeding bullet. A tube of knowledge.
Censorship will stop the flow. The truth will always shine through.
I appreciate your time and effort greatly. I also thank you for hosting a place to speak out and be heard. I admire your stubborn tenacity to keep writing what you know, going upstream sorta speak. Here's to you!
