Re: A question about pay and Influence
But what I don;t get Doc is why thepost was so blown out of portion..
Since it's not been determined as a fact that the post was blown out of proportion, we must conclude that this is your opinion.
It's a relatively small matter to disclose that your expenses were covered by the person or organization you're covering. It's a matter of what kind of blogging we want -- do we want it to be sloppy or crisp. I don't doubt for a nano-moment that Doc was not influenced by the money he got. I've known him for fifteen years. But I also expect him to tell me when he's being paid. Partially because I want others to do it, people I don't know for so long. And I want to be able to point to Doc as an example of the most conspicuous example of integrity in the blogging world.
Does that adequately explain why I called him on it?
