] Has anyone seen or heard of him posting? If not, think that his
] position keeps him from doing so? It would be hysterical if the new
] medium for both generating and reporting news was shunned by
] mainstream journalists because they wanted to avoid an overt
] impression that they were actually part of the news than simply a
] conveyor of news. Seems like they're much more comfortable in a

reporting on? You make it sound so dirty!
