Garvey, Hypocritical Piggybacking, NCAA Watch

Should we drop the term MSM?

An interesting point brought up by a guy standing right behind me: what about the few dominant media coroporations that control blogger, talk radio, etc.?

Is all the free wheeling, frontier-style talk of blogger self-reliant mold just a myth?

- Ed Garvey, standing off in the back left corner of the room with Rep. Mark Pocan, just made an annoying guffaw when someone mentioned shutting Charley Sykes down.

Now, Mandy, who got the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel's blogs up and running is questioning whether bloggers actually do much reporting. Wigderson disagrees. I do, too. LIB live blogs a number of events and speakers on the UW campus that don't get coverage otherwise.

Now Ed Garvey is going on a screed against all things remotely conservative. He thinks blogs will have no impact on the race because everyone is biased.

Charley Sykes is taking Garvey to town, extolling a key benefit of blogging: "Now I can find out what you're thinking even when the moon isn't full." {laughter}

***I hear UW-M is down in the Florida game...I'm sure my brother, who's down with the Panther Band, has his fingers crossed.

UPDATE: Mandy, the mystery lady, has been linked. Comments - the gift that keeps on giving.
