Schreibe gerade an einem kleinen Paper und merke, dass der Herr Lovink eine sehr ähnliche EInstellung zu Weblog und Journalismus hat.
The picture is clear. Only a minority of bloggers see any kind of relationship with journalism. Most blogs deal with personal experiences, and do not focus on the news media, even less on politics. It is a vocal minority of US-American A-list bloggers who constantly misrepresent the image of blogging and push blogging into their direction. As a matter of fact, a blog is first of all easy to use software and should be regarded the next generation home page. It is a general platform, serving general purposes. There is no intrinsic relationship between blogging and news, but it’s going to be a long uphill struggle to get this simple message through.
