Chekhov's Mistress
Little Guy vs Big Media in the Age of the Blog
Responding to a post about Christine Rosen’s TNR review of An Army of Davids (about how technology allows little guy to beat Big Media), Frank Wilson says:
Rosen doesn’t seem to grasp – or else willfully ignores – that it is precisely “the old institutions,” those“arbiters that vetted writing and thought” whose judgment is being called into question.
Read the rest at Books, InQ. Given that Wilson essentially straddles both worlds – editor at a newspaper, but embracing the blog – I’d love to see more of his thoughts on the subject.
