Well, he's been a full-time journalist (snarf) since sometime after the word "blog" came into favor, so he's obviously got every right to tell us oldz writers what kind of value he places on notoriety. As opposed to talent.

God I hate confessional writing. This is what you get when you hire bloggers as "journalists." The whole, insufferable "piece" reads like some twits blog. Nate's problem is that he was a journalist <i>first</i>.
