Boston's Bloggers, Filling In the Margins By Howard Kurtz, Washington Post
The dominant theme of the coverage, Rosen wrote online, is 'irony about politics, irony about newslessness, and irony on TV about TV. That is where we are marooned today. But the irony ('one big infomercial, folks') no longer instructs or inspires anyone, professional ironizers included. It's a big dead zone in the narrative of presidential politics.'
In sheer numbers, these online commentators are a relative blip compared with the combined reach of the networks. But they have a cyber-pipeline to politically attuned voters. And unlike the hordes of anchors and correspondents who at least try to be balanced, most of the bloggers are unrepentant liberals who are here to support the nominee.------------------------------------------- posted 6:35 AM :: reference link ::
