The Professor links to a PROFESSIONAL BLOGGER who's ANNOYED:I still believe what I said earlier this year about this and similarly designed legislation, namely:We're moving toward a system under which only the folks who are deemed to be professionals will be granted the status of journalists, and thereby more rights than the rest of us. This is pernicious in every way.
I do not know WHY the professional bloggers are worried; they're JERNALISTS too, and given their hasty CW, often MORE SO. The PROFESSOR's head must almost come off his shoulders for all his TV GUEST-STAR SPOTS; we'd guess he now makes more as a BIG MEDIA MAVEN than from his full-time job. SHUT UP, Dan. You and the other professional bloggers don't give a damn about the peons, and don't pretend otherwise.
