A tofurkey* in every pot and a free press in every basement, that's what I say. (Please, no. I simply don't want to express myself in a way that excludes my vegan brethren. But please, don't make me it it...) Whatever. A tofurkey* in every pot and a free press in every basement, that’s what I say.

It would be pretty easy to drum up fears of nasty, unaccountable bloggers among folks who don't read blogs. Not too far back, I read a study showing evangelicals preferred mainstream media over online media compared to the general population, so this might have been easy to do.

There are a number of UU bloggers critiquing our institutional structures, but I have not seen many personal attacks. As you said, UU bloggers are quite considerate of one another. Maybe in part this is because we are a small and tight-knit denomination.
