Posted by Orin Kerr: MSM Finds Blogs: Many bloggers embrace the view that the mainstream media tends to ignore the blogosphere. "We're a threat to them," the argument runs, "so those old media elites are trying to pretend we're not here." Maybe that was true a year ago. If I'm not mistaken, however, in the last few months there has been a consderable shift: now the MSM seems far more focused on blogs than before, perhaps more than their influence actually warrants. The latest installments: the [1]New York Times writing about blogger [2]Jeremy Blachman, and [3]The Weekly Standard writing about the blog [4]Left2Right.
