Yikes! The Delaware Blogosphere Has Lost Another

Filed in Delaware by on September 14, 2009 6 Comments

I just surfed over to Delaware Watch and saw that Dana Garrett has posted a goodbye of sorts.  He has apparently decided to hang the blog up for a while, as he has a new job.  I can relate, as I have been unable to get the inspiration to post lately (other than what we […]

Community Standards – A Call For Feedback

Filed in Delaware by on September 8, 2009 78 Comments

To me, blogging is very different than other sources of news and information. Blogging is not like a newspaper or TV news – it’s a conversation between the bloggers and the community. We as contributors don’t feel like we “own” the stories, we are conversation starters. We don’t want people to feel intimidated to join […]

Why The News Journal Sucks!

Filed in National by on August 24, 2009 20 Comments

I don’t know if you missed it, but DelawareLiberal has been mentioned in the News Journal twice in the past two weeks. Both times, we were trotted out to smack us around. The most egregious was the mention on Sunday about our recent change in personnel.

The other mention seems trivial, but it is a little more insidious. Smitty saw it and pointed it out to us. The discussion of DL was that we were trading in baseless rumors.

A Witty Saying Proves Nothing

When the Prince of Darkness died, I commented, “Good riddance. Don’t let the door hit you in the ass on your way to Hell.”  It was Chilon of Sparta who once said that one should not speak ill of the dead, but I’m pretty sure that he wasn’t speaking of people like Robert Novak. With […]

Absence of Journalism

Filed in Delaware by on August 24, 2009 5 Comments

One of our frequent targets of derision is The News Journal — from their inexplicable and often wrong keeper of the Delaware Way Mr. Ron Williams, to some of their very shallow reporting of local politics — this is a paper that doesn’t seem to know from the “paper of record”

A Very Special Around the Horn

Tonight, I was prepared to, at best, declare that coverage of the right wing local blog,Delaware Politics, would no longer be a part of Around the Horn, or at worst, end this column, which provides coverage of the Delaware blogosphere. Why? Because of the attempted outting of Kavips by Dave Burris at Delaware Politics, and […]

A Gift at Drinking Liberally

Filed in Delaware by on June 25, 2009 10 Comments

Sometimes we have people that aren’t really liberal show up at Drinking Liberally.  Tyler Nixon came out to the last one, and in the past we have had a few of the “cool” Republicans come out. This evening, one of the cool Republicans, RSmitty came out to hang out with us.  He gave me a […]

The Delaware Blogging Community to Shrink

Filed in Delaware by on June 22, 2009 24 Comments

It looks like in the next few weeks, Delaware blogging will lose two of its longest running blogs. Mike Matthews over at Down With Absolutes has been pretty clear that he is planning to go to an all-twitter format.  He has gone so far as to look for someone to take over for him. Today, […]
