America's No. 2 Newsrag has
started what it calls
a "blog." We beg to differ. "New" media (and we don't call a BIGMEDIA "blog" new) will still radiate with old-media thinking. That's why we find such shticks insincere; what these hacks wouldn't scribble into their columns they just put on their Web sites. It reeks of slumming. And worse, from what we can tell here, it isn't even interesting. Yet we have to waste more time careening up more cul-de-sacs for information that ultimately cancels itself out from its vast profusion.
