Media Vacuums Will Be Filled, Blogs Will Win

Great point here from Adam Tinworth, about why traditional publishers are suffering so badly at the hands of the bloggers:


the new breed of publisher - the ones doing it for pure passion, at virtually no cost - will and up wounding us where we're weakest. Because we've neglected parts of our audience, pandered to our own prejudices and missed opportunities.

*That* is why blogs have succeeded, and will continue to succeed until the gentlemen's club formerly known as publishing has an epiphany and sorts itself out.
