HW#10 Huffington’s agree or disagree

After reading both Waldman’s and Huffington’s interviews I found huffington’s a lot more interesting. There were more statements that I could agree and disagree with. The first statement that I found was “Blogs have made a huge difference because they have broken the monopoly of the mainstream media.” What made her respond the way she did was this question, If campaigning, advertising, and opining haven’t changed things the way you would like to see them change, how can a simple blog make a difference?. I think that Huffington is mistaken because she over looks the fact that things haven’t changed much people will believe there own political views, I don’t believe that reading a blog can change a persons mind totally. I mean yes it can help give a person more knowledge on what they think but if you look at times now a days blogs still aren’t a huge part of peoples lives. The second statement I found was “If there’s a fact that a blogger put’s out that’s wrong, the changes of it being corrected quickly are very great.” I agree that bloggers have the power to change what each other says, since so many people can visit a comment that you left on a blog because my experience with blogs confirms it.
