More Nazi Rhetoric from MSM Directed Towards Bloggers

Fellow Ohio blogger, Steven J. Kelso Sr., notes that the Toledo Blade had this to say about blogs and bloggers:
One aspect of traditional media not shared by the faceless bloggers who read the news and then twist it to serve their own purpose is that the credentials of the latter are unknown and generally unchallenged. Internet communicators have not a worry in the world about audiences and advertisers who can cancel their contracts or irate subscribers who may call up to cancel their subscriptions if angered enough by editorial commentary or, as they see it, biased news coverage. There is a difference between truth-seekers and communicators. Josef Goebbels was an able communicator and propagandist for the Nazi regime in Germany. [Emphasis Kelso's]
When are these guys going to learn? Bloggers aren't Nazis...we're citizens who are after the truth. We can't trust the media to serve up objective news, so we're checking them out...and not liking what we see. And as readership and viewership in the MSM declines, they'll learn the lesson the hard way.


Mark's Remarks


Well, MSM, your blind following of the Left could be analogous to Pravda, you know, the Soviet news organization that failed to report the tens of millions killed by the Politburo....I mean, if you want to cast aspersions, let's play...
