Just yesterday LGF quoted a Washington Post article by Richard Morin, hoping rather pathetically that people would start ignoring the blogosphere:
Heres another mainstream media hit piece on blogs by Richard Morin, once again tarring the entire blogosphere with the irresponsible actions of lefty blogs Daily Kos and Wonkette: Surveying the Damage.
...rather than flog the bloggers for rushing to publish the raw exit poll data on their Web sites, we may owe them a debt of gratitude. A few more presidential elections like this one and the public will learn to do the right thing and simply ignore news of early exit poll data. Then perhaps people will start ignoring the bloggers, who proved once more that their spectacular lack of judgment is matched only by their abundant arrogance.
Or maybe theyll ignore Richard Morin, who clearly doesnt understand the medium hes bashing.
I might add that today, given Rather’s resignation, Morin probably feels embarassed by how unlikely his hopes are to be gratified.
The lyrics to a classic Buddy Holly song come to mind…
A love oughtta last more than one day
A love that’s love’ll not fade away
Well a love that’s love’ll not fade away
I’ve got an update for Richard Morin: we love this country, and we’re not going anywhere.
