- shawnfassett, on 10/12/2007, -3/+7Apparently the press is having a hard time dealing with the fact that they can't just sit back and give us what they used to...if they won't do their jobs, citizen journalists will.
If they would shut up and do their jobs...maybe the blogs wouldn't be so partisan. It wound be a non-issue.- killinger777, on 10/12/2007, -1/+3Blogs are filled with hateful, polarized ***** on both sides. Luckily blogs aren't shoved down our throats like the mass media. The mass media is only mildly polarized and hateful compared to blogs. Blogs are pretty much relegated to preaching to the choir.

- MSSS, on 10/12/2007, -2/+6Creepy: The mainstream press is so afraid of bloggers that they want to lock them out of the press room. Proof that it's time for some sunshine at the White House!
- trghpy, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2Have you seen that press room?
There is barely enough room for press that do attend.
I hate to sound like a nerd, but the press room should really be just a public BB where accredited journalists can post their questions with the expectation of an answer within 12 hours.

- elebrio, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3Lots of hate filled comments there I'm sure ;p
- lethologica, on 10/12/2007, -1/+4I sure hope Glenn Greenwald jumps on this one. They are completely unable to see the truth in front of their eyes. If they could stand up and call ***** on this Whitehouse once in a while. If they could try to cover actual news instead of trivial tragicomedies like Anna Nicole and the crazy astronaut lady. If… who the hell am I kidding. That will never happen considering how the biz is run right now.
How DARE we take the opportunity the Internet affords us and CRITICIZE their failures and demand our own answers without funneling our message through their corrupt corporate for-profit media apparatus. - CloakandSwagger, on 10/12/2007, -4/+6I wanna say something. I'm gonna put it out there; if you like it, you can take it, if you don't, send it right back....
Tony Snow and the puppets in the mainstream media can go ***** themselves.
....
Air that stinky piece of truth out to dry, C-SPAN. - shawnfassett, on 10/12/2007, -1/+5A bit off topic - but how refreshing that nobody slammed anybody in the comments. Good work y'all.

Umm... Have any of you READ the comments on most political blogs? Go take a look at comments on DailyKOS or Malkin. They are filled with ad hominem attacks and hate speech. This is non-news. Political blogs are full of zealots. Wow... what a news flash /sarcasm.
