I'm guessing that first comment was intended for the previous (movie) post.

Given the demographic I suspect the average local newscast has I'm not going to be too harsh on them for presuming their audience would need to be brought up to speed. I know I only rarely, intentionally watch local newscasts, lacking the patience to wait in line as they ineptly cover a dozen items I don't care about on the way to some teaser piece that almost never is anything but either the barest edge of useful information or turns out to be a red herring.

An interesting consideration is whether or not any of the people at the mini-convention mentioned the role of blogging as alternative, hyperlinked news media. Much depends on who showed up, but this piece could be seen as presenting all blogging in a marginalized, trivial, niche fashion. Granted, that's apt for many (likely most) blogs, but the piece skipped even the role of blogs as specialized sources of information.
