Speaking strictly for myself, I’ll put my reporting skills up against ANY OTHER real reporter in Louisiana, and I’m a blogger.

If you have such awesome skills, why haven't you been hired by anyone?

Sorry, but the vast majority of bloggers have scant skills and even less viable original material.

Blogs are 94.2% trash.

Stop with the actionable slander. Not that I’m saying you started with it.

A major underestimation.

Funny, I feel the same percentage applies to the quantity of your posts that are pure noise and self-important bluster.

abb does great work. For you to ignorantly slam him as you just did is unacceptable.

1.) I don't need the money.
2.) I do it because I want to do it, not because I'm paid to do it.
3.) No "news" organization in existence today could afford my price - or my independence.
4.) I report the news that no else has the guts to report, usually because others are beholden to the political class.

I’ll take your word for that, gunner. I don’t visit that many blogs to know what you know. ... Keep up the good work slapping blogpimps’ tiny behindees, BTW.
