Bloggers & Shield Law Up For Debate...

http://www.editorandpublisher.com/ea..._id=1001263585

This is in regard to whether bloggers are protected as journalists under the shield law.

It should be simple, if they're publishing news, they're journalists. Not CORPORATE journalists, but journalists.

Some of the country's first journalists were farmers, bakers, blacksmiths, and some were former slaves.

Look what they did.

Now it's down to some elitist group determining who's a journalist or not and the answer is right there in their faces:

Every citizen is a journalist. It's their BIRTHRIGHT.

Sheesh.
