Wow.

Personally I have only taken fleeting glances at the coverage of this story around the blogosphere.  I didn't think it was that big of a deal since media personalities are always going to forums saying something stupid.  I suppose he thought he was safe since he was in the presence of a couple of left-wing politicians (Barney Frank and Chris Dodd).  I'm sure he didn't expect them to react the way they did.

Somehow the conservative side of the blogosphere got involved, and started bringing heat to Jordan.  I didn't feel like getting involved because (1). I wasn't interested in the story, and (2). I didn't think Jordan nor CNN would ever succumb to pressure.  So, I left it alone.

But let this be a fair warning to the media that wasn't paying attention while the CBS scandal went down; the blogosphere has stroke. That's two media companies bloggers have brought down, and it didn't take but a week or so for each to be exposed.

It's a shame that Jordan is going down while still denying it, but it is great that the blogosphere helped call him into account for his statements.
