I meant to post about this Burlington Free Press front-page story on political blogging earlier this morning, but forgot. A comment from "tod" in another thread reminded me to get with it.

Not that I have much to say. I think Terri Hallenbeck got it right. I *was* surprised that they omitted The Carpetbagger Report, since that's probably the most highly trafficked political blog in the state, but it seemed like their focus was on statewide politics.

They're right to do the story now — when I wrote about political blogging last October, almost nobody was doing it at a statewide level. The field has definitely expanded.
