Washington Post "breaks" our Libby Trial news

Alan Sipress has a wonderful article in today's Washington Post (OK, I might be biased):

Too Casual To Sit on Press Row? - Bloggers' Credentials Boosted With Seats at the Libby Trial

We've been sitting on this story about blogger credentials for a couple of weeks now and its been killing me to keep quiet about it. So, I am glad its now out there. We will be putting out a press release about it later today and may have more to announce soon.

I am in New York so I have not seen the hard copy of the paper but I am told the story ran on the front page of the Finance section of the Post, with a headline above the fold. I hear they have two photos of me which might be two photos too many.

I like that they included this line...

"The history of where blogging is going to go is not defined. It could go in a very positive direction or it could go in a very negative direction," Cox said. "We have to do more than just sit on our hands and see what happens."
