In yesterday's nationally syndicated column, Ellen Goodman joined the attack on bloggers. While her primary focus was bloggers who were trashing Jill Carroll, she used a very wide paintbrush--actually it was more like using a paint sprayer--and ended up attacking all bloggers. Here is a sample quote:
Nevertheless, this is not a good moment for the bustling, energetic Wild West of the new Internet media. Remember when a former CBS executive described bloggers as guys in pajamas writing in their living rooms? Well, it seems that many have only one exercise routine: jumping to conclusions.
I can assure you of two things--I don't blog in my living room, and I don't wear pajamas. As far as jumping to conclusions, Goodman's column qualifies her for the Olympic pole vault team.
