The apology buzz is still reverberating around the world of news and “opinion columnistry” and shows no signs of abating. Such reverberation is for all the wrong reasons as the two tribes have dug their trenches and are now busy expecting apologies from the other side only to nix them as soon as they arrive. It’s not just the very idea of nats and labs having this “Sorry War” that is nauseating but also the very idea of its catching on elsewhere. Cue the MUT and its “expect an apology” from the Education Ministry for not having been allowed into a playground. Expect Malta to crash to a standstill soon as drivers, shoppers and pedestrians everywhere will find any infinitesimal excuse to expect an apology of their own.
Elsewhere in the real world, it’s the annual appointment with the day of reckoning in the blogging world as the yearly “State of the Blogosphere” report is out. There’s some interesting conclusions and to put it in the words of Technorati’s CEO – “the State of the Blogosphere is strong.”
…and we’re not sorry!
One reply on “Unapologetic”
I wouldn’t really make light of these false apologies to be honest – winking in both directions in respect of something this divisive says a lot about a man who will not take a stand on anything.
And in the spirit of falsity, historic apologies in advance for the potential s&^tstorm that’s about to hit your blog. It can only serve the other side and should not happen, whoever does it.
