His Wordpress blog is seen only by the perverts who log in after him at the library.
His material posted here reaches millions. What is his goal?
Numerically, he's got 'way more exposure here. But no hits.
Hmmmm.
Is there some other distinction between the so-called majors and minors
It varies. Mostly literacy.
Sometimes accountability. The MSM may lie, but they risk lawsuits.
A homeless itchy blogger at a library computer runs no such risk.
Itchy can post any garbage he sees fit with nary a care.
I think it's deep pockets. You don't go after the NYT or WaPo to post their whole content because you know it's futile. They are big corporations.
Plus, and more importantly, it's not the original authors who are employed by the news organization who are posting the content, it's Joe Public posting someone else's intellectual property.
In the case of a blogger, it is their own content. So, if a reporter from the NYT posts an excerpted piece from his own article here, shouldn't he also be expected to post the full content because he's the author of the content?
Or maybe the NYT is the owner of the content even though someone was paid by them to author it, so the owner gets to call the shots?
But then the blogger is also the owner of his own content, but he doesn't get the same "rights" as the owner of the NYT or WaPo?
It's so confusing...
