Read none about it

Perhaps blogging about blogs seems a bit self-absorbed, self-referential, derivative or too many steps removed from real life, too cyber-unreal. Nevertheless I want to point to Mark Steyn's comment on National Review Online's "The Corner" yesterday, in which he discusses a significant story about yet another Obama administration staffing misadventure. He highlights that this story has been working its way through cyber-space while being scrupulously ignored by most of the mainstream media. As he pointedly notes, the technological woes of modern newspapers are very real, but there could certainly be more attention paid to relevant, important content even if it is about things liberals would rather not discuss.
