Freewheeling 'bloggers' are rewriting rules of journalism

Looks like you're making the big time KOS.

In an article in USA today DailyKos.com is one of several blogs mentioned and linked to.

WASHINGTON -- They used to be known as the boys on the bus: the big-name columnists, network TV producers and reporters for large-circulation newspapers who had the power to make or break a presidential candidate's reputation. Now they've got competition.
In the 2004 election, the boys (and girls) on the bus have been joined by a new class of political arbiters: the geeks on their laptops. They call themselves bloggers. Their mission: to remake political journalism and, quite possibly, democracy itself. The plan: to run an end around big media by becoming publishers on the Internet.

And you thought you had trolls before     :)

All in all a fairly balanced upbeat look at the world of blogs
