Trotter goes blogside

For all the scorn and derision that commentators, columnists and journalists pour upon blogs, aside from the likes of Colin James and Garth George -- neither of whom are probably even aware that blogs exist -- there's more and more of them turning to the blog side.

The latest to come across is Chris Trotter, who aims in his blog, he says, to be unashamedly elitist.  A fine non-egalitarian start then.

  2. What a bizzare man. He makes a rational statement in one senatance, and an utterly idiotic one in the next.

  3. I would rather read a blog from Garth George than one from a communist Trotter.

We welcome thoughtful disagreement.
But we do (ir)regularly moderate comments -- and we *will* delete any with insulting or abusive language. Or if they're just inane. It’s okay to disagree, but pretend you’re having a drink in the living room with the person you’re disagreeing with. This includes me.
PS: Have the honesty and courage to use your real name. That gives added weight to any opinion.
