Cutting Political Bloggers Out of the Loop
Are big-name political bloggers just another endangered intermediary? That basic question came up in the Politics Online Conference session on Web 2.0 and politics, soon after the mention of the role of comments on news organization sites in helping activists bypass media filters. The basic point: just as commentors on mainstream sites can speak directly to those sites’ readers, political campaigns are working hard to reach voters directly online, without needing the support or even the notice of prominent bloggers to do so.
