8. ‘Blogging are not exactly journalists, which is
a mistake many people make. They expect
us to be dispassionate and unemotional
about topic such as occupation and war.
That objective lack of emotion is impossible
because a blog in itself stems from passion
– the need to site for hours at one’s
computer, slouched over the keyboard,
trying to communication ideas, throughs,
fears, and frustrations to the world’
– Iraqi Blogger Riverbend, 2006
