Talking Points Memo | Don't Get No Respect
There's been a lot of griping recently from the Right about how there are no web-native news outlets on the right, or that they aren't seen as having a lot of credibility or that the people who write for them get no respect. And then you read that Pajamas Media, the right-leaning blog outfit started a few years back with a crazy amount of VC money just hired Joe the Plumber to be their new war correspondent in Israel.

Why do you hate the working man, you sneering elitist?

On this side of the pond at least, talk radio is the turf of the working class--truck drivers, farmers, construction workers--while blogs are the toys of the educated--students, engineers, professionals. All the blogs in the world will not affect the views of my Nebraska cousin who has a dial-up modem connection to the Internet.

What is really amazing is how lousy the "liberal" talk radio shows are. It is a mystery to me how leftists in Hollywood can sell all their other trash, but can't figure out how to compete with a bonehead like Rush Lamebrain and his ilk...
