That it is “Bloggers rejoice in having lower standards? Well, excuse me! I think this shows just how out of touch Mr Wheal is.”

Hi Adam,

Yes, I did think after I’d written it that, actually, humour wasn’t the intent. It’s certainly sparked a lively debate / argument over there! :)

I didn’t name the person who received the e-mail. Their Exchange username was there, but I very carefully didn’t extrapolate to who it might actually be. Only someone within the NUJ who knew how their login naming protocol worked could name the user with 100% certainty.

And, to be honest, humour wasn’t my main intention. My main intention was to point up both how some people associated with the union view blogging journalists, and how their understanding of the technology behind modern publishing is somewhat lacking.
