Blogger Broadcasting

Posted by Jeremy Brown

Earlier this evening I caught the very tail end of Jeff Jarvis, Roger L. Simon, and Matthew Yglesias on Kudlow & Co. So I'm afraid I missed the juciy bits, if there were juicy bits. And I missed Glenn Reynolds, Andrew Sullivan, Wonkette, etc. on Charlie Rose (I'm going to have to break down and order the video).

My point? Just that the bloggers are increasingly becoming kings and queens of all media. And also, that I managed to make a crude recording of Norm Geras' brief interview on BBC radio last week. It's not the best quality because my sound card was on the fritz. And the interviewer kept Norm anchored to the rudiments (why do you blog? No, but why do you bother to blog? No, I mean, why would anyone bother to blog?) but the interview was by no means hostile and the tension of all those naive questions actually may have created a good space for Norm to give a good account of a certain part of his story as a blogger.

In any event, you don't hear this professor on radio or TV often, so here's your opportunity (.mp3, approximately 5MB).

Jeremy, Michael, and Mary,

You have, or I assume you have, no idea of the magnitude of your impact on the ignorant masses (myself included).

One nice side-effect of all the publicity blogs are getting now is that I get to see what some of these folks look and sound like.

Ahhh!
Blogger this, blogger that.
Blog, blog, blog.

BLOG. B l o g!

I love the Orwell tea manifesto, so thanks for the link. Now that I can get PG Tips at my local supermarket I can follow all of his advice. I dissent only when it comes to the sugar. I think it's the job of a good strong tea to laugh in the face of milk and sugar. What the milk and sugar provide then is a kind of dialectic tension, a bit of yin/yang, a kind of 'is it safe?'/oil-of-clove without which the tannins in the tea are just tannins. I feel the same way about coffee: if it's good and strong it doesn't mind having milk and, yes, even sugar in it. It is like a strong, self-confidently heterosexual man who enjoys the whimsicality inherent in wearing a flaming pink sweater (not saying I have one, though I used to).

I love the Orwell tea manifesto--JB

Me too.Thanks Benjamin.Would love to stay but have to go make myself up a pot as we speak.Wonder what Orwell would have said about tea-bags? Well actually I can very easily guess what his attitude would have been,but to me tea-bags are the best thing that ever happened to tea.
And I agree on the 'strong'aspect as well.Nothing worse than a cup of lukewarm,WEAK,tea.If as Jeremy says,it can't stand up to the puny assaults of the sugar and milk,it is not nearly strong enough.

Enough naval gazing. Bloggers and blogging are meaningful largely because of their irreverence; an irreverence that comes from perception of insignificance.

Self-awareness is the precursor to corruption.

Posted by: at February 19, 2005 09:12 AM

Thanks, Mike T. And thanks, Jeremy, for recording the interview with Norm Geras. Why do MSM interviews of bloggers always sound like thinly vieled attacks?

Anyway, fake news loves us! Yehudit sent me the link to this pro-blogger Jon Stewart clip:

Self-awareness is the precursor to corruption

Is that inspired by zen or Adam and Eve? I think the real idea is not to pretend to be insignificant; the trick is not to care about signficance.

Just two months ago I was rather sure that it was the beginning of the end for most of us bloggers.
Many of the popular ones slowed or stopped posting regularly after the election, and it seemed the life had gone out of it. After the election that seemed to define blogging, everyone was just exhausted.
Suddenly everyone had a blog, and they they used them not to take down reporters, but to let people know how the new baby was doing, to complain about homework, or for bitching about how clueless the new boss is.
But in the past several weeks, a renaissance has occured in the pajamasphere. A new life has been breathed into everyone. Everyone is posting full speed ahead once again. But why?
Was it Eason Jordan losing his job at CNN? Nah, he's better off now, he has Sharon Stone. Much better choice if you ask me.
I believe it was just because everyone took a much needed rest. Will they ever become your kings and queens? In the long run I'm not sure. But I still like blogging at the Pirate-King, and I'm not going to stop while I still have something to say!

Jeremy

LOL!

Yes, I agree tea should be very strong, and I don't mind a bit of sugar.

I think Orwell would have come round to the idea of tea bags.

I agree with you the way you view the issue. I remember Jack London once said everything positive has a negative side; everything negative has positive side. It is also interesting to see different viewpoints & learn useful things in the discussion.
