Well I can't see the importance of Janet Street Porter


Writing in the Sindy yesterday,the Queen of Yoof Tv says

Blogs are surely the musings of the socially inept, those people you sidle away from at parties after a couple of stabs at conversation. They are the product of the internet that has given a "voice" to millions of people who have nothing to say apart from the fact that their pet has just exited via the cat flap and the baby has soiled another nappy. Thousands of hackneyed opinions about books on Amazon written by people who can't use a three syllable word. Endless reviews of films tapped out by couch potatoes who've never experienced any culture other than the one within their suburban front room


As Iain Dale rightly points out it is rather strange that she should in a paper that is actually promoting its own blog open house.
