Professional Doers

“One of the most neglected aspects of the blogosphere, in my opinion, is that precisely because it’s (mostly) composed of people who aren’t professional journalists, it’s composed of people who are professional doers of something else and know a great deal about what it is they ‘really’ do… If you want to push back[,] you’d better know what you’re talking about and not treat your audience like a pack of mewling children.” – Matt Yglesias at Talking Points Memo.

One thought on “Professional Doers

  1. It’s true, in journalism class they basically teach you that the readers are children. “The average reader has a sixth grade reading level”.

    That would explain why no one visits my blog. Pout pout.
