Nailed it. Jim Dalrymple on blogging vs 'corporate blogging' (click)
There is so much tripe written about blogging, and blogging versus journalism, and blogging as ‘weaponised’ internet, and blogging as barbarians at the gate of ‘big media’ and distorted propaganda or embarrassing ‘over-sharing’ disclosures … blah blah blah.
If you care, read Jim Dalrymple’s post Blogging is not a thing, it’s an attitude.
Yeah. The word ‘authenticity‘ doesn’t appear in his post. but, being one of the themes of this blog, I detect it.
And of course, TRUST. Which is where I was going with I’d double-check if they told me what day it was.

i think blogging is bullshit .. much akin to whispering behind the bikesheds.
Its money sex and power – and the ego let loose to rape and pillage without discretion or moral compass.
At least media are clearly what they are.
Bloggers are like that annoying bit of mould that keeps appearing in hard to reach parts of the bathroom .. the leftovers from other more important activities.
It’s hard to beat Cactus Kate’s description of blogging, Ivan:
“An utterly useless waste of a person’s time”
