Bloggers can be any idiot who writes anything they want for whatever reason. It can be pure unadultured BS based 100% on their twisted opinion. It could have no insight and equally no socially redeeming value. It could be so bias as to render the words useless garbage and the message a ranting load of crap.
Bloggers can be anyone who writes anything they want for a specific reason. It can be factual based on a well crafted review of information with no personal opinion expressed. It could enlighten people with information they needs and provide people with true journalistic value. Their writings can be void of any bias and provide a piece worthy of a Pulitzer.
And as most often are, it could be a combination of both.
Blogs and bloggers have expanded our information base and have also curtailed our information base.
I have read just about everyone’s blog who linked it here. Some are good pieces of information that I read regularly because it informs and enlightens. The others are a worthless waste of space that doesn’t merit the time.
So Menehune, I can only offer the opinion of a respected judge as a guide, "….bloggers words are trustworthy when they employ trustworthy standards to their writings, and their words are untrustworthy opinions when they employ untrustworthy opinionated standards to their words. The individual reader has to decide."
