In a Huff about blogs

They scoffed when she started up the Huff Post. They said she'd never dislodge Drudge. Maybe she didn't displace him, but she sure gave him a big nudge. Now there's a nice little interview with Arianna Huffington at Wired on her thoughts about blogging. The money quote.
As for improving the quality of journalism, we must (find) ways to give mainstream journalism what it most desperately needs: a spine transplant.
Indeed. In all the breathless wonder lately about how the MSM finally started reporting facts instead of White House talking points during Katrina, I was thinking if it wasn't for all the bloggers reporting eyewitness accounts, the story might have played out much differently.
