Whilst on the subject of blogging, BBC Journalist Kate Adie hates bloggers( via Adrian Monck)
In an interview( of sorts) with Mike Mullan conducted on restaurant cruise ship he relates the story
"There I was tucking into my shrimp salad and listening to one of my heroes, a living icon of broadcast journalism in Britain, dismissing my blog as “egotistical nonsense.” She didn’t actually mention my blog, of course, but that is how it felt."
And by the time that pudding arrived
"Kate had admitted that what she really objected to was not so much weblogs, as the idea that journalists should spend their "precious time" writing about how they obtained their stories:"
As well as BBC managers
who blog during working hours. Their weblogs, she maintains, are proof they have nothing better to do.
So there is one journalist who certainly won't have a blog
