He reported on the obvious and didn't bother to dig any deeper. If I were a true journalist I think I would want to interview a few 'bloggers prior to writing such an article. Basically what he did was exactly what he accuses the bulk of 'bloggers of doing, just writing off the cuff.</p> That was kind of my point.

To cover the blogging phenomenon in 500 words or less, you might want to actually VISIT some blogs–which are easily found through many other places than a search engine that launches half a dozen pop-up ads when you go there. He could have started with Weblogs.com and worked from there.
