Blogs, blogging and the question "who is a journalist?" as answered by Slate's J. Weisberg. I like this response. Journalism as a basic right...Who Is a Journalist? - Anybody who wants to be. By Jacob Weisberg: "must accept that anyone who thinks he's a journalist is a journalist, and figure out how to protect the activity rather than a defined group of people. Properly understood, journalism has never been simply a trade or a profession. In a democracy like ours, it's a basic right."
