IN THE NEWS
CATEGORY: Blogging

I got a very nice write up in the Daily Herald, the largest suburban newspaper in Chicago (circ. 770,000).

The reporter asked Hugh Hewitt and Ed Morrissey about me and I was surprised and pleased at what both those gents had to say:

Rick is a superb blogger who brings sharp analysis and very good humor to any story he writes on. He’s often ahead of the blogging pack,” wrote Hugh Hewitt, a syndicated radio talk show host who runs one of the most popular right-wing blogs and wrote a book on the topic titled “Blog: Understanding the Information Reformation That’s Changing Your World.”

Hugh has been one of this site’s strongest backers almost from the beginning. His encouragement has always been most appreciated.

Ed Morrissey still wants me to change the name of my blog:

“Rick’s blog name is a dirty lie. Rick is one of the most sane and rational writers in the blogosphere, and his posts are always fun to read. He does not issue polemics, but passionate and rational arguments that always advance the debate,” wrote Ed Morrisey, writer of the popular right-wing Captain’s Quarters blog.

And another Chicago area blogger Dave Schuler of the excellent site Glittering Eye weighed in as well:

“I think he is one of the fairest and the savviest of the bloggers,” said Schuler, who describes himself as a centrist. “He’s an analyst. You always learn something when you read one of Rick’s posts.”

Thanks to all my blogbuds for their support.

AND FOR ALL OF YOU VISITING VIA THE DAILY HERALD, WELCOME! ON THE LEFT SIDEBAR ARE SOME CATEGORIES FOR ARTICLES THAT YOU CAN USE TO PERUSE THE SITE FOR WHAT INTERESTS YOU.

    Hi Rick,

    Hugh Hewitt links to you this morning with a suggestion that the Daily Herald hire you as blogger/writer. What a GREAT idea. They could pump up that 770K circulation very nicely!

    Sent you an e-mail this morning. Again congrats!

    Secret of blog success

    You see? Forget about Harvard. Forget about internships. Forget about working with bigshots in Washington. You’ve got to spend some time in the real world if you want to be a great blogger—and six years working at Piggly Wiggly in Algonquin, Ill., ...

    Congratulations. With luck, this will bring your efforts the attention they deserve.

    Tell Captain Ed to stuff it. Rightwing Nuthouse is a great name.

    What a great article. I told you weeks ago you should be a replacement for Jonah Goldberg. Better writer, more clarity of thought, and an actual sense of humor. You are not always correct, but you are always Right and always writing well. This blog is not the final chapter of your writing career.

    Except the online version of the story has your URL wrong in the story (but right in the picture caption).

    Oops.

    Woohoo! Congratulations for the well deserved mention, Rick.
