Journalist (and blogger) Andreas Ekström writes a call for action to his colleagues in Journalisten.
“The blogosphere? They really hate us out there. Really. They are incredibly fed up with us. Do you know that, you who don’t read blogs? Have you any idea how much we get beaten?”
I don’t know if it’s that bad. But I come to think of a song that I believe could be the theme song for bloggers, especially the media watchdogs: Morrissey’s “The more you ignore me, the closer I get”:
The more you ignore me
The closer I get
Youre wasting your time
The more you ignore me
The closer I get
Youre wasting your time
I will be
In the bar
With my head
On the bar
I am now
A central part
Of your minds landscape
Whether you care
Or do not
Yeah, Ive made up your mind
The more you ignore me
The closer I get
Youre wasting your time
The more you ignore me
The closer I get
Youre wasting your time
Beware !
I bear more grudges
Than lonely high court judges
When you sleep
I will creep
Into your thoughts
Like a bad debt
That you cant pay
Take the easy way
And give in
Yeah, and let me in
Oh, let me in
Oh let me …
Oh, let me in
Its war
Its war…[continued]
