The internet, in general, is full of adverse diversity, of facts and fiction, isn't it? Hmmm, is Glenn Beck, commentating as FOX News, or is he commentating more as a FOX News blogger? Really can be a slippery slope for some of us non-news writers. And where is that line drawn anyways? Is it black & white, or IS IT gray/grey? I don't know who to believe, what's news, and what's the difference between a news anchor and a news commentator and a journalist? If I'm writing a journal, and it's from my perspective, am I just a writer, or am I a "journalist"? What is a journal? What is journaling? Sorry for the questions Andy, I know that you're simply delivering the news. Now that brings another question to mind, are you a news reporter, or are you a news delivery person? And would that make a newspaper delivery "person" a "reporter"? Ah, it's all rhetorical and in the "eye" of the beholder, isn't it? Thank you Andy for that ….”bloggers” personal view point of a “journalistic” newsworthy note.
