Words of Wisdom
Patterico has some advice for mainstream media types who are feeling threatened by blogs:
I have a very simple suggestion for mainstream media types who feel in any way threatened by bloggers: whenever you hear the word "blogger," think: "reader."
After all, bloggers who aren't discussing your newspaper are irrelevant to you. And bloggers who are discussing your newspaper are simply part of your readership.
In other words, they're your customers. And, while the customer may not always be right, the customer deserves to have his complaints heard.
Sage advice indeed. Does anyone know any local members of the mainstream media who are threatened by blogs and might benefit from it? Anyone? Bueller?
