Irony, it's like goldy, or bronzy, but worth less

Ah, Andy, in your cushy job, with your top tier education. Journalism is a craft. When did you last pound the pavement, fish for information via social engineering, or sit down with some politico having done all your own research?

Undoubtedly, the majority of bloggers are empty vessels - making the most noise. But, you seriously insult people who hone their writing skills, learn social engineering, library research, management of Freedom of Information requests, and sundry other skills.

Keep your powder dry, and if you must rant, target the odious unnews of the Murdoch empire.
