Interviewed on Blog Talk Radio

Published February 12, 2008 5:00am ET



Regular readers of this space know that Ed Morrissey of Captain’s Quarters is often linked to here. This is because I long ago concluded that Ed is among the most prescient and intelligent commentators on the right side of the Blogosphere. He also happens to be one of the most genuine and down-to-earth people I know.

But Ed lives in the icebox state of Minnesota, which I don’t often visit and he doesn’t get over this way to the nation’s capitol much, either. So when Ed came to town for CPAC last week, I had to head over to the Blogger Row to say hello.

I caught the Captain at a slow moment Saturday morning, so being desperate to fill some air time, he slapped a headphone on me, told me to sit down and try to say something reasonably intelligent while he fired questions at me.

Most of the questions focus on the state of the newspaper business and whether it has a future anybody presently involved in the industry would care to experience. My answer, by the way, is that it does and I am optimistic about the prospects for traditional journalists in the online news world. You can hear the interview here.
