To those in the media threatened by bloggers and not understanding the blogosphere

You are looking at patriotic citizens who realized the mainstream media sold its soul to the Bush administration and they went looking for the truth.

But some cannot accept this fact. Glenn Greenwald explains:

John Yoo at an April 18 Civil Liberties debate (via blogger Roger Ailes):

[Since 9/11] we have had outpourings of new political speech through new methods and means, for example, uh, people I wish never existed -- bloggers.

This did not exist before 9/11. Are we really in such a civil liberties crisis if bloggers are able to use this new media to say I think quite incredible things?

Journalists are only journalists if they work hard on reporting the facts and are more committed to uncovering the truth than being in with the in crowd.

Remember what real presidents understood: "The only security of all is in a free press." - Thomas Jefferson
