Bias against blogs and other social media continues.
Apparently a lot of local and state governments do not consider blogs and other social media sources as proper media outlets for press releases. A friend of mine who has a blog that covers Virginia politics recently requested that the cities of Portsmouth and Suffolk add him to the mailing list for press releases. Both cities gave a less than enlightened reply. I won’t get into the details but will let you read them for yourselves.When will the MSM and government agencies catch on to the journalism revolution?

Thanks for the link Michael. I appreciate it.
Oh… And I love the term: “journalism revolution”. I may, with your permission of course, have to use that if/when the need arises.
