That Guido Fawkes got such a rating doesn't say much for your readership Iain! And the more reputable ConHome isnt really a blog anymore.
ReplyDeleteThat Recess won left of centre says even less for the leftwing blogosphere!
How exactly are these "awards" rather than a bloggers' survey results?
So basically any prat who puts finger to keyboard can be a top Labour or Liberal Blogger whereas on the right unless you are virtually full time you have no chance.
ReplyDeleteExplains a lot
Thank you Mr Newmania !
ReplyDeleteAlternatively, the right-wing blogosphere is much more comfortable looking up to authority figures? Just a thought...
ReplyDeleteRecess Monkey has more pics of Iain Dale than this place.
ReplyDeleteWhat about a blogging contributor of the year.
ReplyDeleteMy vote goes to
VERITY X
Fawkes is fake who has banned me from commenting, just because he could not get the better of me and my superior itelect. Plus he was rave organizer what a disgrace. And he is a tory stooge. Atleast you own up to what you are. He pretends to be a neutral. Cover blown.
ReplyDeleteAnyway what about worst blog of the yeart award. I am preapred to vounteer for that award. But i want other candidates.
A list of blogs without links to them? How very useful.
