A “Mini” Interview with major implications
Right Wing News is one of the more influential political blogs on the Internet. That’s why we were so pleased to see a “mini” interview with Angela appear there yesterday. Like a “mini” skirt, sometimes “less is more.” And it didn’t take long before the rest of the blogosphere took notice. Michelle Malkin, Provide for the Common Defense, Bluey Blog, Booker Rising, The Jawa Report, among other blogs have posted, linked, or otherwise mentioned Angela, the interview and/or the message of her book Bamboozled.
Why is that special? Is this nothing more than an online “mutual admiration society?” Perhaps, but those that might like to think so — in our opinion — are ”whistling past the graveyard” where the remains of their relevance to the American public (and more importantly the American electorate) putrifies and rots as surely as the flesh of a cadaver buried in the earth. The dead and dying media of major metropolitan newspapers with their shrill and increasingly irrelevant editorial pages and their compatriots in the former oligarchy of the three major national television network news organizations are now being surpassed in influence by the so-called “alternative” media.
Soon, as more and more of us turn to new sources of information, the Liberal Agenda will no longer be the subject of endless repetition in a national mass media “echo chamber” whose lies are force fed to an unwitting public until they become “common knowledge.” No longer will the pronouncements of the self-anointed “high priests of truth” go unquestioned. (Remember Dan Rather and his phony documents about President Bush’s Air National Guard service? Prior to the Internet would they have been discredited? And so quickly?)
This is why we must be ever vigilant to guard against those that would stifle the new voices of “alternative” media in the name of “campaign finance reform” or extension of “the fairness doctrine” to cyberspace. As the election of 2008 approaches, the death throes of the old media, as they try to enforce their tired liberal ideology onto America one last time, will become more, and more extreme, just as a drowning man before finally succumbing to the inevitable.
So, was it just another interview reported online? Yes, but its implications are so much more than that.

Thanks for the shout out about my blog, Booker Rising. Yet for the record, I did not learn Ms. McGlowan’s new book from Right Wing News (a website that I have never visited). I heard about her book on the FOX News Channel, where she recently appeared discussing an issue.
