- Is Era of Right-Wing Site Popularity Over?
  Posted by Billbar
  During the past three months, for instance, http://rushlimbaugh.com traffic ranking has declined 18 percent. Even Fox News, that gold standard of right-wing media, is down 13 percent. Ann Coulter is coining money by attacking widows and orphans -- a new game for her since she's run out of Democrats, living and dead, to defame and verbally pillage. Traffic to her site, http://anncoulter.com, is down 10 percent.

- James Wolcott: Hard Fascism, Soft Heads
  Posted by Billbar from james wolcott
  Admittedly, I don't circulate as much as Mickey Kaus, who I gather is moonlighting as the Jerry Zipkin for fright-night bachelorettes, but you would think that by now I would have come across some of those Angry Bloggers I keep reading about, those tommy-gun typists who have escaped captivity and eschew the finer points of etiquette, not to mention spelling and punctuation. I briefly met Kos, for example, and was quite disappointed by how genial and low-key he was. Perhaps he was having an off-day, since those more astute than I perceive an angry radioactive core. Had a brief chat with Steve Gilliard when the vile Republicans were in town in '04, and he failed to put his fist through the nearest window in my presence or break innocent pencils in two.

- Get Out Your Tinfoil Hats

  Netvocates is an organization that sends people out to web logs to post propoganda in comments. They appear to be tied to conservatives and there appears to be a tie to townhall.com, the ultra-right-wing web site.

  But then Armstrong, 42, bills himself as a different kind of consultant, an online insurgent who, with Markos Moulitsas Zuniga, aka Kos, is leading "a bloodless coup" in national politics. "We are at the beginning of a comprehensive reformation of the Democratic Party -- driven by committed progressive outsiders," Armstrong and Moulitsas write in their recent book, "Crashing the Gate," which sold 5,000 copies online before it was even published.

- BlueFrog spammer war whacks blog site
  Posted by Billbar from CBR Online
  Six Apart Ltd, which runs the popular LiveJournal and TypePad blogging services, has become the collateral victim of a "very big, very sophisticated" denial of service attack mounted by a Russian spammer against an unrelated security company.

  Think the people who while away their hours reading and commenting on political blogs are slovenly twenty-somethings with nothing better to do? Think again.

Funny – or weird. Makes me a little uncomfortable to be on the homeland.

Fake e-mail publisher defended in Boston Globe
I was kind of surprised that the Globe would do this, but on thinking further, no. Blogs, especially blogs with large followings, are seen as a threat by the main stream media. Still, a hatchet job like that??
