Title links to a 26-page deconstruction of the Trent Lott affair put together by the Kennedy School of Government at Harvard. Aside from the irony of stamping “Do Not Copy” across all the pages of a freely downloadable document on the Internet, this is a very interesting look at the role that Weblogs and bloggers played in the demise of the senator. If I could copy any snippets out of this freely downloadable document, I’d paste some of the more salient conclusions drawn about the blogs vs. journalism debate. But I can’t. Suffice to say the line is blurry at best.
