'Pot Calls Kettle Black'
'States Adversary is Biased - has Solipsistic Views'

In a story of major importance, The Wall Street Journal, has declared that blogs are too biased:

Because political blogs are predictable, they are excruciatingly boring. More acutely, they promote intellectual disingenuousness, with every constituency hostage to its assumptions and the party line..


Known for it's totally unbiased, powerful investigative, non party line reporting, and op-eds, this article will surely be the first stone piled upon the grave of partisan blogs. Long live the honesty and purity of the Journal. As an aside, holding their nose in the air, they also offer this bit:

The blogs are not as significant as their self-endeared curators would like to think. Journalism requires journalists, who are at least fitfully confronting the digital age. The bloggers, for their part, produce minimal reportage. Instead, they ride along with the MSM like remora fish on the bellies of sharks, picking at the scraps.


The Journal has journalists? Who knew? My image is of the Journal is one where a fat, bloated, lumbering old man blinded by his solipsism, is sitting in his porch rocker while termites slowly eat the chair legs. When his ass hits the floor, he'll wonder why - but never find out.
