Watchdog for Blogger's Rights
Wednesday, July 16, 2008 at 07:50AM This is a little off subject for this blog, but I always am concerned when Congress starts messing with how blogs are used and possibly regulated.
As described on the Fox News article, "House Atwitter Over Rules Governing Video, Blog Posts", there are rule set by Congress about how it's members can use or not use blogs. Texas Rep. John Culberson has done an excellent job, in this author's mind of better keeping in touch with his voters and should push to continue.
He points out that using blog's helps him get his message out without the influences and spin from the mainline media. That's a good thing!! Too many times, you can tell the bias or opinions of the writer, which should not be in context of reporting rather then on the Opinion Page.
Let's hope the congressmen sticks to his guns and doesn't allow this form of communication to be "Spun" like the majority of the messages that we read and hear daily.
