Greetings

Greetings from Ninja Cat, otherwise known as 偲びの猫 in proper Japanese lettering (and not 偲びの子猫ちゃん。。。)

I haven’t blogged in years, and I’m not a hundred percent sure I plan to. When blogging first started getting popular I felt that the concept of devoting entire websites to one’s self could be considered narcissistic and arrogant, and I felt that “attention whoring” my beliefs to gratify my own ego would not be the type of endeavor that I would like to have partook in.

Blogging today, however, has become more of journalism. I highly respect the people out there bringing unique perspectives and fully executing the right of free speech to cover without restriction various items in the news.

Share your feelings by taking a stand on what you believe the effect that the Internet has had on journalism.

Also relevant:

What effect do blogs have on politics?

Are blogs credible sources of news?

Should bloggers be allowed to blog anonymously?
