Sure you should, but there's a more important issue than that. I've been a print journalist for years, and I think any blogger who feels he/she has a right to snipe anonymously like this is seeking a double standard. Note this has nothing to do with the content of this blog in question. In fact, I haven't even read it, and know nothing about it. The point is, bloggers insist on being considered "journalists" in the same way that, for example, writers from the New York Times are. Well, guess what, kiddies. You wanna sit at the big table? Fine. You better have the balls to back what you say, then. That's what "real" journalists have to do, too. Every single day. No NYT writer gets to run anything on the front page anonymously. What makes bloggers so friggin special that they get protection?
