Back when we had 13 channels, Mom used to say: "Don't sit so close,you'll ruin your eyes." I wonder what she'd say about the Internet...

Jay Rosen found my comment!! Wow! I wasn't douched for being a big mouth after all! and he left a comment, which I responded in length to here at Pressthink.
I was really surprised. I explained to Jay that I often expect to be swatted like a fly on the wall because I'm not a big-name blogger. I'm surprised that he dealt with my dyspeptic hyperbole pretty well by emailing me. But I usually only resort to dyspeptic hyperbole when I feel strongly that I won't get a second glance anyway.
You may not be a "big-name blogger", but that whole "picture with a hat" thing means you'll be instantly recognizable if you turn up at conferences wearing it. ;)
I appreciated your writing so honestly and openly about your reactions.
