Jay Rosen

February 15, 2005 by Michael Boyle

has posted his PressThink: Closing Thoughts on the Resignation of Eason Jordan which touches on a lot of the issues. He also refers to the transcript of the segment on the affair from last night’s Lehrer News Hour. Though I think Rosen is right on, it still seems lost in this that blogs didn’t cause Jordan’s resignation. If the powers that be at CNN choose not to recnognize the distinctions that can be drawn between different blogs, it’s unreasonable to suggest that “the blogosphere” at large had anything to do with Jordan’s decision. The blame – if that word applies at all – has to lie solely at CNN’s own feet.

has posted a good piece today: Non-Blogger Fired For Blogging! In it he asserts that no blogger has ever been fired for blogging, a point of view I heartily agree with, and also looks at things from the opposite perspective in terms of the Eason Jordan/CNN/Davos tempest last week.

February 10, 2005 by Michael Boyle

the most intelligent opinion on the Ward Churchill brouhaha in Colorado belongs to Dahlia Lithwick: Stupidity as a Firing Offense – Why is Bill O’Reilly chairing our faculty meetings? “One hundred percent of the blame for the Churchill debacle rests with the University of Colorado’s board of regents that hired, granted tenure to, and promoted an individual whose scholarship and personal qualifications are now, and must always have been, in serious question.”
