Over at the online Capital Times, there’s a story about last weekend’s annual liberal gathering, the Fighting Bob Fest (named for ‘Fighting Bob’ La Follette).
FightingBob.com is the group’s blog. The group believes in more government than a libertarian could ever stomach. Far too much. Still, they’re an interesting bunch.
Both the Cap Times and FightingBob.com are web-based.
Many newspapers, struggling in print, may find their way on the web, along with political websites and blogs.
One shouldn’t expect longstanding incumbents and career bureaucrats to embrace new media as tools of openness. They won’t.
Yet, good newspapers (in print and online) and vigorous organizations (of contesting views) will have an auspicious future in America.
