The Philosophical Question of Eason Jordan
If a tree falls in the woods and nobody wants to hear it does it make any sound?
That is the metaphor for MSM coverage of Eason Jordan. Now that he has resigned, expect perfunctory news coverage and flaming columns denouncing the rumor-mongers of the blogosphere.
Here's a suggestion to all you nervous newsies wondering if you are the next in the crosshairs. There is a book about this strange internet phenomenon that might be informative, infuriating and terrifying. Gee, what is the title? I remember it was something clever. Oh, right.
This would be a great place for a book quote but I lent my copy to the CEO. Hope he reads it. I will have more on the book once I get it back.
