Interesting response from Jeremy Pepper about the Forbes piece. One could say that Lyons "started it" by using negative words such as "bashing" and "attack," but there certainly is some irony here...many of the rebuttals to the article have been extremely harsh. Bloggers launching angry (and in some instances) personal attacks on a reporter... to prove that bloggers don't attack people. Interesting indeed.

That being said, I still think the article is overly critical of blogging. I also believe another point has been proven with Jeremy's post: the blogosphere is self-cleansing.
