Response to, "Is Blogging Journalism?"

Well, this guy does have a point. But, the question is that is it the right point. And no, it is not. Well, partly. Please, let me explain. Blogging is partly journalism. I think that blogging can be journalism, it just depends on how you use it. And yes, I do get this guy's point, but he hasn't done the research.

There are some blogs on the internet that are totally devoted to the news, not just some guys opinion. No, blogs are not big websites such as The Huffington Post, or even CNN.com. They are small, little sites, cramped in the darkest corners of the internet. And some of these blogs can look a lot like journalism.

Yes, some blogs are devoted to telling you wether or not this guy likes the office or not, but others give you updates on news around the world. So yes, and no... to the question, "Is blogging journalism?" It depends.
