This thing just keeps going. Via Instapundit, Travis at Rain Storm sees a conspiracy behind the whole thing:
It’s the old guard Dems and a few Ivy League journalists, seeing the times a changing, focusing all their resentments on a handful of insightful bloggers who might have referred to them as “wankers” a time or two.
So they’ve been throwing a swift boat hissy fit, telling stories out of school about those mean bloggers who called them such awful names. What a bunch of whiny ass wankers.
It’s the traditional media using blogging tools to give as good as it gets, if you ask me. Blogs are only relevant in as much as the MSM allows them to be, either by providing fodder by way or article or by picking up on stories that run around the blogosphere. This is what happens when bloggers continuously bite the hands that feed them.
