The Bf on Blogs
Just saw the Cindy Shehan ad for the fist time. Very deep and moving, extremely powerful and dangerous for the White House (which, btw, has hired its own "Iraqi mother") It show she has excellent spin doctors behind her, and the Moveon.org money. It's a case of symbiosis/parasiting, like the sea anemone and the clown-fish, we don't know anymore who's using who. But that works.
The hardest, for us in the business of understanding the news, is to be able to determine whether we are watching a defining moment that is going to go to History schoolbooks (like the Vietnam bodybags, or the video confession of Clinton).
The answer is: don't bother to ask, defining moments wont be necessary as there won't be history books in a near future. Our education will not so much depend on acquiring a set of common reference (reading books) as to acquire the ability to create, each of us, a personal functional pattern to use in the best of our respective needs the trillions of information pieces circulating around us (the famous 6th dimension we still don't know exists). That's why blogs are a big thing now. When you read or write a blog, you are making your own sense, and notions like striving for accuracy or sharing the same referencial background are not so vital anymore. The very notion of information accuracy is not so much important. Why does it have to be accurate when it is not meant to become common and universal reference ? See Wikipedia. Securing information accuracy is not the most important thing anymore, compared to having people "wiki" their way through the 6th dimension.
So Cindy Shehan is the first global blogger that is actually not using of a computer, but 24H cable news.
(Ladies and gentlemen, thank you for your kind attention.)
