[by Todd] Anyone notice the way that mainstream media, when forced to acknowledge the presence of blogs, typically uses a dismissive tone? It's worth remembering that the realm of consumer control is laying waste to far more than just advertising efforts.
Oddly enough, broadcast news seems to think the way to re-engage viewers is by raising the volume more and more. Regardless of your politics, this cartoon from Tom Tomorrow seems to nail the issue quite well.
Thanks Lynn for the heads up.

That seems like a problem with a lot of people, of course broadcast news included. If people aren't listening or stop listening, instead of getting better, they just say the same thing louder.
