JAMES MILLER PREDICTS A COMING WAR ON BLOGS:

It’s a universal law of capitalism: when an industry faces a new and significant threat to its profits and powers it turns to the government for protection. Well, bloggers who write on current events are challenging the mainstream media (MSM), the most politically well-connected industry in America. Watch for the MSM to start using their political influence to burden bloggers.

He has some thoughts on how that might take place.

UPDATE: More worries here. Meanwhile, note this stirring defiance from law professor blogger Tom Smith: “they can stop us from blogging and saying whatever we think, especially about political candidates, when they pry our keyboards from our cold, dead fingers.”
