I’m gonna have to buy this guy some flowers …

… cause of the nice things he wrote
about me. Tom
Mangan?s Prints the Chaff blog is
one of the best independent journalism blogs around (I hesitate to use
the term ?j-blog”). He used to run these two great sites called Seven
Questions and Newsies on the Web
.

Tom used Peoria Pundit (yeah, I?m
linking to myself. Deal with it.) as an example of how spunky,
independent blogs can?t live up to their potential without resources
available to dead-tree media and broadcasters.

My reply is posted
on his site.
