I don't think it'll happen anytime soon, but to put the scenario out there, for everyone to discuss, I think Benj was right to do so. @Jester, honestly, I’m with you on this, I really don’t think it’s far fetched.

In any case, I did agree on the bit by Tonyo that there shouldn't be an elitism that pervades the blogosphere, or else we will be making the same grave mistakes as other institutions.. Again, don't fret, sometimes, we get misunderstood, sometimes, you just have to brush it off, and keep on doing what you're doing.. @Benj, It was not the scenario, I don’t think, it was the tone that was perceived, i.e.. they shouldn’t blog, because this worst case scenario could happen, which I thought was overblowing the article..

The government has cracked down on the Press many times already. With the prominence of Lozada et al in the game, that puts their blog on the same footing as old media.

That's ok. Thanks for your usual tolerance. As promised, I remain consistent to The Persona. ;) Nick, I think you missed the point of my ‘Establishmentisation’ article and like a lot of others latched on to the ‘intriga’ aspect of it.
