Hi all,
Just a note to let you know that my latest column was
posted recently to OJR, this time taking an in-depth
look at do-it-yourself media watchdog, blogger and
AIDS activist Michael Petrelis and the trouble he's
caused digging up political contributions by various
journalists and publishers.

Quote: "As a news consumer I see tons of bias in what
does get into the news and what doesn't. I thought,
wait a minute. I'm a news consumer, I run a blog now.
I'm just going to put this out there. Dude, let's talk
about Poynter, AIM, FAIR, Online Journalism Review,
places with more people, more resources, more
credibility, less political baggage than this Nader
voter -- they haven't done it!" -- Michael Petrelis

Enjoy,
Mark
