he could also be reading the wrong blogs. I am better informed on things via what I read on lj. sure I don't get every little thing but I get insights that with out the blogs I wouldn't have had before. however there are a lot of blogs out there that are more boring then I claim mine to be. but like you point out, blogs are ways for us common folks to disscuss things in our own ways. I would not discredit it as a media however. if anything it is a great way of seeing the thoughts of those effected by events. sure I'm not intelectulaly qualified to go into full detailed debate over a stimulus package, by in the end my life will be effected by it, so perhaps by viewing how little I and others know would inspire some other media source to explain things in laymen terms..
I hope this made sense as I still don't feel good and am have some diffaculty orginizing my thoughs.
