By this rationale, why does anyone ever have to disclose anything? You can apply this logic to traditional media as well. Afraid to admit in the blog that you got the stuff you rave about was free?
The real impact is it opens a channel for the vendor to craft a message even if the blogger is acting in good faith. Why do you think Consumer Reports is always telling us the stuff they test was purchased by buyers in the real world, as opposed to being supplied with samples by the manufacturer?
Once again, this underscores the difference between journalism and blogging (which sad to say, too many people equate.) Blogging does not deserve to have the same credibility as journalism does, and it's time people realized there's a huge difference between the two. Then they wouldn't be duped so easily. - Posted by: hickum Posted on: 10/15/09 You are currently: a Guest | Members login | Terms of Use
