They make my points for me, readers.
When have blogs been treated so well by the MSM?

They blame us for their losses!
Here is one of the Zionist agents (FRONT-PAGED IT, the Globe did):
"News of Iran, edited in Newton; Upstart website now a go-to source" by James F. Smith, Globe Staff | June 20, 2009
NEWTON - Kelly Golnoush Niknejad was sleep-deprived but energized. She’d been up all Thursday night, on the phone to contacts across Iran and e-mailing contributors to her website, suddenly one of the go-to sources for those trying to keep up with Iran’s post-election frenzy.
I know the up-all-night feeling.
The website is called Tehran Bureau, but it is not housed in the Iranian capital. It’s edited from Niknejad’s parents’ living room in Newton.... Tehran Bureau is leading a virtual surge of information from Iran as the Islamic republic confronts the biggest set of public outpourings and protests since the Iranian Revolution 30 years ago.
“It’s kind of The Huffington Post of Iran,’’ said Robin Wright, a veteran diplomatic journalist who is now a scholar at the Woodrow Wilson Center in Washington....
Oh, so that is what the globalist Robin "Judy Miller" Wright is up to these days.
The English-language site has generated a lot of attention over the past few weeks as tensions escalated over allegations of electoral fraud by President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad’s government. When demonstrators were shot and communication with the West was curtailed in a government clampdown, Tehran Bureau’s stream of news alerts and Twitter feeds became a valued source of information cited by The New York Times and other Western news organizations.
Well, THAT CONFIRMS IT! Twitter NOTHING but ZIONIST CRAP!
“I had no time to sculpt these into stories, so I just put them up on the website, and called it Tehran alert. People started coming to that page. We started putting up links to videos, too,’’ she said.
When her website tehranbureau.com was disrupted for several hours recently by what she believes were Iranian government censors, she used blogging tool Twitter “and started putting things out sentence by sentence, and people were stitching it together.’’
Niknejad quickly points out that while she has been the primary editor, many people in Iran and elsewhere are supporting the website, providing information and, more recently, donations. It has been an unpaid labor of love since its launch in November as “an independent on-line magazine about Iran and the Iranian diaspora.’’ She hopes to shift her base to New York soon and draw on reinforcements there.
Oh, so she was CLUED in on the UPCOMING COUP ATTEMPT and got ALL SET UP!!!
And btw, I have been here since Sept of '06 and it has been NO LABOR of LOVE, let me tell you! The PROFANITIES testify to that!
Niknejad’s family emigrated from Iran to San Diego when she was 17, after living through the Iranian Revolution and the first stage of the eight-year Iran-Iraq war.
Translation: She a SHAH HOLDOUT!
She went on to study law, and then got two master’s degrees from the Columbia Journalism School. Her parents moved to the Boston area seven years ago. She has not returned to Iran since she left in 1984, but she found herself pulled constantly toward her native land, especially after the Sept. 11 attacks.
As if they had something to do with it. Pffffft!
What s*** "journalism.
"This past September, she returned to Boston from nearly a year of reporting for an English-language newspaper in Dubai - a major Persian Gulf listening post for events in Iran - and resolved to launch a blog.
So she worked at the CIA spy station, 'eh?
That blog evolved quickly into an ambitious website, enlisting a range of Farsi-speaking contributors drawn from Iranian-Americans and the diaspora in Europe as well as academics steeped in Iranian life. The site offers not just political coverage but a blend of cultural and economic reporting, intended to offer what Niknejad calls a fuller, more nuanced picture of the country than is usually available....
Since when has the MSM been so high on the blogs?
Niknejad is determined to counter what she calls a simplistic coverage of Iran in Western media.
And whose fault ids that, Zionist controllers?
She also wants to stand up to what she calls the fringe Iranian-American community that she says would like to hijack the unrest to try to overthrow the Islamic republic. “Tehran Bureau is not an opposition news organization,’’ she said. “I have tried to reach out to hard-liners, I reach out to Iranian reformers; I just wanted a more accurate representation of what’s going in Iran than is reflected in the media.’’
Me, too!

Niknejad noted that many Western commentators cite a simple urban-rural divide in Iran, and say Ahmadinejad could have won the election based on strong support in rural areas. But Tehran Bureau’s reports from areas outside the capital, including Shiraz and Isfahan, suggested that opposition to Ahmadinejad was also considerable in smaller cities and rural areas.
Yeah, whatever. I don't believe MSM lies anymore.
The site’s output has been uneven in recent days. Tehran Bureau and others have struggled with mixed success to work around those constraints, through proxy servers and even faxes. And within Iran, Niknejad noted, “a lot of people have gone quiet. And I don’t want to put anyone in an uncomfortable position.’’
So you guys are just ]making stuff up now?
Wright, who has written numerous books on Iran, including the recently published “Dreams and Shadows: the Future of the Middle East,’’ said the problem Niknejad faces in Iran, “like everyone else, is just getting material out of there, and people being willing to put their names on it.’’
Oh, do I KNOW THAT PROBLEM!!
As for the anonymity, WHY make the ZIONISTS JOB EASIER!!
And why lead thugs to my door with my unique name?
Niknejad doesn’t know the current web traffic figures. On Twitter, Tehran Bureau has nearly 9,000 “followers,’’ many of them contributing from Iran. "
I just took a dump, tweet!
But the site has drawn strong praise from Iranian analysts. Professor Hamid Dabashi, a renowned Columbia University scholar on Iranian culture, said of Tehran Bureau, “as history would have it, it has turned out to do unbelievable, remarkable work - not just in informing the American community, but through the magic of the Internet, also to make it available to people inside Iran.’’

More Twitter (can you believe it?)
"The repercussions of a 'Twitter revolution'" by Evgeny Morozov | June 20, 2009
Need I even note the ethicity? Boston Globe opinion, right?
IF REVOLUTIONS had mascots, the one unfolding in the streets of Tehran would be forever linked with an iPhone. After all, what better match for the “Twitter revolution,’’ as some pundits have already dubbed the Iranian protests?
Twitter has been singled out for a reason: For almost a week, the Iranian election has been the most discussed topic on this popular microblogging site. And it’s not just the usual babble: There are plenty of intelligent reports from eyewitnesses from Tehran as well as links to photos and videos of events, reported almost in real time....
So do BLOGS, d***-s***!
Besides, not all online activism is effective activism.
As someone who has investigated 9/11 and the false-flags of history and seeing the way the Zionist press covers us, that's not a surprise. The silenece and cover-up says more about the complicit enablers than anything I could type.
What good is the ability of foreigners to contribute via Twitter if their contributions only worsen the situation for activists on the ground? Consider a much-publicized campaign to launch cyber-attacks on Iranian websites that are loyal to Ahmadinejad. Thanks to a tremendous viral success, hundreds of Twitter users - including many Americans and Europeans - took up “cyber-arms’’ and launched their offensive, most of them without realizing that such attacks would also slow down Internet access to everyone else, including supporters of Moussavi, who might be unable to share their protest updates.
So the BLOGS were TELLING the TRUTH about that, huh?
For all it’s worth, we may as well have been observing a Twitter “counterrevolution’’: The fact that Twitter-based activism is restricted to cyberspace does not absolve it of its destructive capabilities.
Oh, so NOW Twitter will have to be SHUT DOWN, huh -- like the rest of the web?
We may be prone to embrace the thesis that the “Twitter revolution’’ is shaking down the authoritarian fixtures of Iran simply because we know so much about the online activities of Moussavi’s supporters - and almost nothing about those of conservative hard-liners. That their voices are missing from Twitter does not mean they are not relying on the same new media tools to mobilize their own supporters; they simply do it in Farsi and on local sites - we simply do not know where to look.
I'll spell it out for you: B-L-O-G-S!
We shouldn’t forget that Iran’s hard-liners are not averse to technology: After all, it was the use of tape recorders and video cassettes that allowed the exiled Ayatollah Khomenei to build up revolutionary spirit in the country during the 1970s. His more contemporary adherents are as keen on blogging as their secular counterparts; religious seminaries in Qom, Iran’s center of Islamic learning, have been offering blogging workshops since 2006; a dedicated organ - called The Bureau for the Development of Religious Web Logs - has been controlling these developments.
And here the Amerikan jewsmedia had me believing Iranians eat dirt, whip their wives, and drink blood -- in between plotting death to us all, of course!
Thus, Iran’s regime is quite knowledgeable about social media. Perhaps we should not read too much into the government’s reluctance - or, some have argued, inability - to ban tools like Twitter. The reasons for these may be much more banal: These tools are simply too useful as sources of intelligence about what is happening in the country.
At last, we see the REAL ZIONIST GOAL of TWITTER: to SPY!!
Not only do they help the Iran government to follow the events closely (as well as to understand the perception of the government’s actions) in every single locality with an Internet connection, they also help it to understand the connections between various activists and their supporters in the West. From the intelligence-gathering perspective, Twitter has been a gift from heaven.
Yeah, for the Iranians, right?
Did YOU KNOW that TWITTER is also ONE BIG DATA-MINING OPERATION?!!!!
However tempting it might be to attribute the Iranian protests to the power of Twitter, Facebook, and other social media, we should be extremely careful in our conclusions, especially given that the evidence we are working with is extremely sparse. By sticking labels like “cyber-revolution’’ on events in Tehran, we overstate the power of social media and make it look much more threatening than it really is.
That is the WHOLE POINT! To SHUT TRUTH-TELLERS like ME down!!!
Thus, should Ahmadinejad stay in power, the vibrant Iranian blogosphere would also inevitably pay a dire price for this; jailing bloggers in Iran is hardly a novelty these days.
Where's his proof and why doesn't he cite at least one case? Because he can't?
Good thing the Free West doesn't jail anyone, huh?
But the repercussions of a false “Twitter revolution’’ in Tehran might be global too.
Unfortunately, it is going to be bloggers in Russia, China, or Egypt who would eventually pay the price for such exaggeration; their governments, already suspicious of new media, may now want to take preventive measures - that usually involve intimidation and arrest - well in advance.
I will HOLD YOU to YOUR WORD, Zio-tool!

I NEVER TRUSTED TWITTER and I DO EVEN LESS NOW!!
