Nobody ever said, as an auto factory closed, "Joe was the best right wheel well installer we ever had" or "Man, Linda could put a windshield on like nobody else."

And those shuttered car plants weren't upholding the principles of democracy, either.

Our newspapers are closing because of our success. Now everyone thinks they can do our job, and who knows, maybe they're right. But nobody's succeeded yet. TV may have cribbed from our stories for 30 years, Talk Radio may have distorted our words, but they never tried to do what we do. The Blogosphere does, and people are convinced the Blogosphere is a valid source. Who are we to argue with them?
