On cable last night (Fox 8) was a first run (for Australia) of an episode of The Simpsons where Lisa starts a newspaper to get the truth out against a corrupt media. Others in Springfield follow and soon everyone has their own newspaper. The episode was a commentary on diversity in news outlets and, of course, the blogging phenomenon. This quote from Homer is a gem: “Instead of one big-shot controlling all the media, now there’s a thousand freaks Xeroxing their worthless opinions.”
