That to me is actually a serious point - I do in fact post a lot before I dress for the day, and it's unlikely that I am unique in that respect. It's one thing to Skype my daughter, who wouldn't be surprised to see me in pajamas and house coat at the hours I find myself calling to her time zone. Quite another to say that I shouldn't post unless I'm wearing a tux.Along similar lines, there is such a thing as "conservapedia" as an alternative to Wikipedia - but even tho you have different editors the format constrains you and that actually biases the result subtly. My unwillingness to jump through the hoops required by the format means that my analysis doesn't make it into the encyclopedia. An analysis which I consider important, and essentially unique to my humble FR postings.
The Market for Conservative-Based News
We have, in a relatively short period of time, progressed to video largely due to an explosion in infrastructure that amazingly has barely kept up (or perhaps not quite) with demand. Whether this technology will support realtime productions is a moot point - it already does. Several representatives of the MSM have pointed out that these will inherently lack the verisimilitude of a professional news production. That point is laughable. But they go on to state that these will lack the slick presentation as well, and this seems to me a valid point.
We wouldn't have to choose between slick presentation and truth if the MSN hadn't made a collective decision that influence was more important than truth. They did, and we do.
