The Washington Post
I cannot imagine how anyone could feel abused on the blogging network. We are supposed to be artists sharing our craft. I do not condone targeting writers for ridicule or harassment and I think that these people who take pleasure in this practice are lacking in manners and social graces. However, those people have the same rights as the rest of us to exercise the freedom afforded us by the First Amendment. These are only words people!Admittedly, words
are powerful but they are only that, words. In this forum, we can block the abusers, choose not to read comments or even other blogs for that matter. We live in a free country, enjoy the freedom to speak, to write and to be heard.
