I’ve just realised why the comments last night ascribing one monolithic mindset to the traditional media annoyed me so much:

> *His commenters show the typically depressing blogger mindset of* 
> *treating us journalists like a monolithic social block that all behave* 
> *the same way. Yet if any journalist should dare to describe bloggers in* 
> *the same way, all hell breaks loose…*
