Journalists are jealous of bloggers. Some of them very jealous. And I am not saying this just because if you type &#8220;Jeff Jarvis&#8221; into Google you get 397,000 links and if you type &#8220;Steve Lovelady&#8221; (the Dorothy Parker wannabe who recently called us &#8220;salivating morons&#8221;) you get 804. Many of the more prominent bloggers are people who could have been journalists but chose not to, going into professions that took more professional training and/or were more remunerative. Now they can afford to blog at their leisure and, not surprisingly, they&#8217;re pretty good writers and journalists. And, also not surprisingly, many journalists are pissed off.]]>Tue, 15 Feb 2005 08:11:22 -0500<![CDATA[Roger L. Simon]]>https://pjmedia.com/roger-l-simon/2005/02/15/anonymous-grub-street-n206871
