Blogging vrs. Politics

Over at the Making Light blog, there is some discussion about right wing bloggers trying to hijack a news story by blogging that it is a hoax. These are anti-blogs. Unfortunately, the story of James Tobin effort to block Democratic phone lines in New Hampshire is not a hoax. The republicans hired a firm to make hang up phone calls to the Democratic campaign headquarters, and Tobin has been indicted and the Republican party is paying for his defense.
I am doing my bit by anti-anti-blogging the story.
Google search results are often interpreted as truth. Technorati is tool for searching for net reality. This anti and anti-anti and anti-anti-anti stuff will throw a haze over what really happened. I am not sure now if my blog entry is part of the solution or part of the problem.
