Take a look!
"In a decision that could set the tone for journalism in the digital age, a California appeals court ruled Friday that bloggers, like traditional reporters, have the right to keep their sources confidential."ZZZING!
- San Francisco Chronicle
I'm not even going to read past that first paragraph! According that California court, I am on par (I've said it for years) with "traditional reporters". I'll I've got to say is thank God I'm not considered traditional. That sort of mainstream labelling is the type of thing I try to steer as clear of as possible, especially when dealing with my target audience (the greatest nation in the Universe), a practical medley of different cultures where no stereotype can validly encompass a group (except gays, but I count them as Canadians). This type of freedom from speech is a monumental decision: print news is going to be all but eliminated in the coming years, what with the Internet and telescreens, and the like. What we need to do is get a step ahead and start burning books now to fuel our cars—that way we can drive oil prices down while curbing the intellectual deviance of the population!
Gotta go, you guys, FOX News at 9 is on.
