Josh Marshall has some fun with Lee Siegel.
I will never stop finding the fact people who work in traditionally print-oriented outlets have gotten such little reader feedback over the years fascinating, and how shocked they are when they get some. Even when this blog only got a few hundred hits a day I still got a substantial amount of reader feedback, either in comments or email. And while as Josh says not all of it is friendly, and some of it is just annoying, without the immediacy of feedback I would've gotten bored with blogging long ago. When the comments go down my own blog bores me.
