Blogging....

In the article, “Blogs: All the noise that fits” by Michael Skube, Scube’s believes that bloggers are rapidly increasing and that blogs are based on opinion and not facts. He refers to the blogging world as “Blogosphere” and that it is the “loudest corner of the internet.” Bloggers are able to voice their opinion with no restrictions and are happy because it’s free. He also recognizes that bloggers are “becoming the watchdogs that watch the watchdogs” in a way that keeps the media honest since, bloggers have no reason to be dishonest, they just voice their opinion and have fewer “obligations” then the media. Scube’s gets annoyed about bloggers because they get the information out their but with out the facts and research journalist do.

In comparison between Michael Skube’s article and Andrew Sullivan’s article, they both recognize how blogging is increase and taking of the world. They recognize how bloggers are able to voice their opinion and provide information on a topic for free. Andrew Sullivan supports that blogging is “changing the media world” and can revolutionize how journalism is today. Michael Skube’s belives that blogs should not be based on opinion but, be based on facts and debate. He believes that if the information is going to be out there, it should be correct and not just based on opinion.

Even though blogging is changing how the world is, and how information gets noticed, the information on blog’s are not equaled to the information magazines or newspapers offer. I agree with Michael Skube’s article that blogs should be based on facts and not from opinion. Someone’s opinion might decide to leave in the information that they agree with and leave out the ones they disagree with. The newspaper and magazines are both based on all facts.
