They Have Blogs
Mark Paul of Moonbats & Wingnuts, one of McClatchy’s alt.campaign blogs reviews the blog reaction to the Repub YouTube debate and it isn’t pretty: The blogs flunk the media again.
In case you didn’t notice, the Wingnuts thought the candidates were sandbagged by allowing obvious Democrats to ask questions, while the Moonbats thought the questions were inane and pointless for a Presidential primary.
I’m firmly in the camp that believes all of the legacy media™ coverage has been inane and pointless. You have to do a lot of searching to find out where any of the candidates in either party stand on any important issue, and there is no information about the stands of several candidates on many issues.
Usually the League of Women Voters sends questionnaires to candidates and then prints a booklet with the answers. No one seems to have been able to do that for the primaries. Apparently, primary voters are expected to take their best guess and select someone, and then the questionnaires will be sent to the candidates selected. This is not a reasoned process, the debates have been of absolutely no help.
