Blogginghead political cyborgs
Saturday, December 5, 2009 at 09:57AM I've listened to some of the debates on blogginghead.tv between young political pundits and it's striking how most of them sound alike -- many look alike. The words are pronounced with painful clarity -- the university accents are homogenous -- the content is excruciatingly moderate with only slight variations in political leanings -- the hip-irony is thick -- the politeness is a vanilla-delight -- the humor, what there is of it, is insiderish and winkish -- the passion is fashionably contained -- the bias is intelligently hidden -- and doubt is well-played in open-ended profundity.
So, I've concluded -- they are cyborgs.
