I’m so proud of the SD Bloggers!

by

Pitty Pat Powers and Sibby share a tender moment

During this economic downfall in South Dakota, I couldn’t be more happier by the way the SD bloggers have covered it. Once again the bloggers have stepped up to the plate and have had non-stop coverage and perspective.

And the mainstream media wonders why they are filing bankruptcy? Because your heart isn’t in it anymore. And it is sad really. We are on the verge of an historic presidency, whether it succeeds or not, and it looks like the bloggers will have to cover it.

A shout out to my favorite SD bloggers; Cory, SD Mac, Pat and Todd. You truly have paved the way.

    Thanks, Windsor. And you are taking it to another level. Seriously. Keep up the good work, even if I don’t agree with everything you say. Someone has to point out that the king has no clothes once in a while.

    Todd- Isn’t it sad though that it takes a crisis to get people to pay attention!? I’ve been bitching about Rounds for years, but no one is listening until now.

    Bloggers will slowly replace traditional journalism in the next couple of decades. The coverage of the 2008 elections proves it.

    Cool. I’ll be able to file for bankruptcy in a couple of years. BTW – I’m going to ask all of my contributors to work for free this year because of the economy, wait . . .

    Ghost: no, bloggers will not slowly replace traditional journalism over the next couple of decades – they already replaced it.

    Recall the WMD fiasco? The stupid invasion & occupation of Iraq?

    Recall the economic implosion, credit & housing crisis? http://tpmcafe.talkingpointsmemo.com/2009/01/23/the_medias_role_in_the_financial_crisis/

    The traditional media is captive of advertisers so it’s all happy news or no news. That is AMPLIFIED in small markets, small states and small towns.

    Thank god our local TV news does not always concentrate on healthcare and weather (sponsored by healthcare). No wonder South Dakotans are so informed.
