Blog Blight
I found this comment on one of those assine blogs filled with misinformation and spelling errors. It's just too freaking good to let it get lost in the void of cyberspace so I'm sharing it here.
Kudos to the author of the comment.

BLOGBLIGHT ALERT!
"This blog is infested with blogblight: n. Malicious lies, half-truths, distortions and insinuations perpetuated mindlessly by bloggers publishing misinformation, photos or video from each others blogs, or the tabloids, with no thought to the veracity, authenticity or libelous nature of the content.
The blight bloggers range from professional journalists (who should know better) down to the celebrity gossip hacks. Similar blight occurs in the other news media (tabloids) as well, but is more pervasive on the internet because of the anonymity accorded many of those who perpetuate it.
Blogblight undermines one of the basic values of the internet, information sharing. Rather than seeing legitimate and accurate information, internet users see blogblight instead.
This blog also has a bad case of DumBlight."

I can identify some of those blog blighters; they're also a blight on humanity and sanity.
They also have a self-righteous hypocrisy nature.
Thank you for posting my BlogBlightBuster comment. Sadly, during the past few months, I have found numerous opportunities to use this comment in defense of Clay. And, I'll keep using it to shock BlightBloggers into recognizing the seriousness of the harm that they are doing.
On a happier note, I am so looking forward to seeing Clay in concert this summer. I've adored him since AI2.
Thanks again.
You are most welcome.
