From Dave Price,
regarding Christine Rosen's critique of An Army Of Davids:

Rosen then misstates Instapundit's laconic news/opinion aggregation as "vacuity,"
a category error if I've ever seen one. This is like complaining that your car
lacks a mizzenmast and tends to take on water in heavy seas.

. . . or like thinking that Rush Limbaugh is a 'journalist'. Many error-prone
critiques of blogs do indeed arise from confusing the 'blog mission' with scholarship,
journalism, or some other enterprise. And much of the ire towards blogs arises
from thinking that blogs are trying to muscle in on these territories. But blogging
has its own 'blogic' or blogging logic, that is more spontaneous, personal and
(ideally) self-correcting than those other enterprises. It is a different animal
altogether.
