The blogosphere’s news judgment is evident on Blogdex and it’s not the news judgment you’ll see on major news sites. On Blogdex right now, the top two stories are about Iran. Elsewhere (on the BBC or on Google News, for example), you won’t find Iran on the front page.
Blogdex reflects the news judgment of the audience. It reflects the news the audience cares about. The two should not disagree. But they do.
Somebody’s overpaying those guys.
UPDATE: But Asparagirl has a report from the NYC Iranian Freedom protests, complete with pictures and some thoughts on who didn’t show up. Read it.
