Salon staff writer, Farhad Manjoo, places a great deal of importance on his claim that Robert F. Kennedy introduces nothing new over what has appeared in the blogasphere already. What an interesting and novel observation! If true, then Kennedy seems to have indeed given us something new and very important. Specifically an article in Rolling Stone magazine and Manjoo has answered it, not in print, but at least in Salon. A public discussion has started and it's only two years too late!
Maybe in a few years we can have some of these issues actually discussed in print or on the air by the "official" corporate media. What a joy it would be to have these important issues that are of so much interest to so many people actually discussed in the popular mass media - even if they have already had some attention in the blogasphere.
