You're Damn Right I'm Angry
Over the past few months, I've seen mainstream media sources talking about the "anger" of blogs. In their eyes, however, this is not a righteous anger at the current state of our nation, but an indiscriminate all-consuming rage that can only destroy our nation. And what do you know; apparently, it's mostly present in left wing blogs.
I've seen articles focusing on how left wing blogs rage about the state of America and use foul language, not really talking about the points that take up the space between the rage and the swear words. Michelle Malkin gets a book published about how the liberal blogosphere is full of nutjobs, which quotes mostly from anonymous comments on certain blogs. Lee Siegel of The New Republic paints Kos and his associates as fascistic viligantes.
And yet, I'm sure they'll all be rushing to either point out or denounce this disgusting mess:
So, in the school of what’s good for the goose is good for the gander, we are providing this link so YOU may help the blogosphere in locating the homes (perhaps with photos?) of the editors and reporters of the New York Times.
Let’s start with the following New York Times reporters and editors: Arthur “Pinch” Sulzberger Jr. , Bill Keller, Eric Lichtblau, and James Risen. Do you have an idea where they live?
Go hunt them down and do America a favor. Get their photo, street address, where their kids go to school, anything you can dig up, and send it to the link above. This is your chance to be famous - grab for the golden ring.
So, a blogger- not an anonymous poster, but a fucking blogger- has called on his posters to stalk a writer, a photographer, and their families, as well as put their personal lives up on the Internet for all to see, just because they belong to the New York Times and have reported on information that has already been reported by fucking NewsMax, of all sources. Keep in mind, of course, that this isn't the first time the right wing blogosphere, which holds itself high above those liberal moonbats, has resorted to enabling death threats to make a point.
Dear press: this is what an unhinged, unrestrained political rabble looks like.
UPDATE: Apparently, a commenter thought that it would be good if the flow of information went both ways, and published the personal info of the blogger who provided the personal info of the Times reporters. I swiftly deleted his ass. I won't see this horrendous offense against free speech turned into a race to the bottom. Any questions?
