JD's New Media Musings: March 12, 2003 Archives-Random acts of journalism

Is blogging journalism? Can blogs tell the truth? My goal in blogging isn't to become a journalist but speaking the truth and asking difficult questions is why I'm out here. No matter the topic, I want to make people think.

The American mind is in desperate need of help. Journalism/news won't strengthen this great gift of God. But blogging just might give some of us an opportunity to publish the truth to the masses and make them ponder. And that would be a deliberate act of kindness.
