One of the funniest criticisms I hear leveled against Zitron is that he’s just a lone crank, and no-one else is saying the stuff he is. Obviously he’s milking the attention he’s getting (gotta get that bag), but I haven’t heard any coherent responses to his claims, nor have I seen anyone else pursue even the modest degree of journalistic effort that he puts into his blog. Modern mainstream journalism is in a state of complete flatlined, and at a time when there are bigger, crazier stories than ever to discover.
