Yay and bravo, Steve. And thanks. I’ll try to rouse myself to some journalism-related opinion–Why is Obama pretending he’s a Republican? Do I really like the idea of a mass rally at the convention? Why has the Online Journalism Review been closed down?–but it IS summertime and, for a few weeks yet, the living is easy.

And I love that line, “Your Comment is Awaiting Moderation.” I think I will use it in class.

Interesting first post. I am curious what trajectories it sets in motion, and how they will be engaged?
My take is that already there is a problem of inequity in coverage.
Here’s to the journey!
