An Anonymous Blogger, Revealed

BRIEFS Abu Muqawama, an anonymous blogger we’ve mentioned several times in The Lede’s posts on Iraq, has revealed himself as Andrew Exum, an Iraq War veteran and military scholar with a few New York Times op-eds under his belt. He also decided to hand the blog over to other contributors in order to pursue his academic work in Lebanon, not that everyone took him that seriously. “I figure it’s a Jay-Z-style retirement,” Spencer Ackerman, another blogger on security issues, wrote in response.

KEN SILVERSTEIN-Blogger Roundtable Coordinator: Let's find people to "carry our water"

Once more I’m going to return to the topic of those blogger roundtables organized by the Pentagon, which I have discussed several times since last summer and most recently last month. In that last item, I discussed the New York Times story that revealed how the Pentagon worked with retired military officials and prepared them to serve as supposedly independent media “analysts.” That was part of a broader Defense Department media program that included the blogger roundtables, and which looked for “surrogates” to whom Pentagon talking points could be fed.

New media blogger tells all, to old media

Hell hath no fury like the blogosphere scorned. For the last six days, the New York media blogosphere has been consumed in a fascinating psychodrama that is equal parts biblical, technological and Oedipal. Last Tuesday afternoon, readers of Gawker.com were alerted that the upcoming Sunday New York Times Magazine would give over its cover to Emily Gould, one of the site's former editors, for a 10-page confessional about her life as a blogger. The 26-year-old Gould was not just any blogger: She had spent much of her year at Gawker, which she left last December, revealing deeply personal details of herself and her relationships.

Lawyer Seriously Slapped Down For SLAPP Attempt Against Librarian Blogger

We've covered the concept of SLAPP (Strategic Lawsuit Against Public Participation) suits plenty of times before. These are bogus lawsuits filed to try to bully a critic into shutting up. In one such case, involving an incredibly broad subpoena against a librarian blogger compiling information on the potential link between mercury and autism, a magistrate judge has seriously smacked down the lawyer who filed the subpoena. The blogger had merely published on her blog information about the fees the lawyer in question had received. In response, the lawyer subpoenaed a ridiculous amount of information from her: "all documents pertaining to the setup, financing, running, research, maintaining" of the blog, "including communications with representatives of the federal government, the pharmaceutical industry, advocacy groups, non-governmental or

Blogger: Why I Left Google for Microsoft

Blogger says her travel ban speaks Cuban truth

Blogger Launches 'Google Bomb' At McCain

hhavensteincw writes "A liberal blogger has launched a 'Google bomb' project aimed at boosting Google search results for nine news articles showing Sen. John McCain in a negative light. The Computerworld article notes: 'Chris Bowers, managing editor of the progressive blog OpenLeft, is launching the Google bombs by encouraging bloggers to embed Web links to the nine news stories about McCain in their blogs, which helps raise their ranking in Google search results. Bowers is reprising a similar Google bombing effort he undertook in 2006 against 52 different congressional candidates. "Obviously, it is manipulating, but search engines are not public forums and unless you act to use them for your own benefit, your opponent's information is going to get out there," Bowers said.
