| IDS falls in love with blogging |
[Feb. 20th, 2005|05:36 pm] |
Have posted another story to Blogosphere News, after Beloved Other Half pointed out that former Tory leader Iain Duncan Smith has written an insightful but utterly one-sided piece about political blogging for The Guardian.
Rather than repost the whole thing in this blog, here's an abstract and link:
- Blogging will revive the Right, says senior British Conservative
- Political blogging could be the Right's secret weapon, according to former British Conservative Party leader Iain Duncan Smith writing in the left-leaning Guardian newspaper.
I'm trying to write without political bias for the site, which meant a heroic effort was needed to not be derisive about Duncan Smith. Not too derisive, anyway.
(For the Brits reading this, I should say that I'm assuming most people who see the piece will be in the US, and won't know anything much about either IDS or the Guardian - hence the need to explain who they are in the first paragraph and the headline.) |
