Bloggers' suits: Now on tvPAS and... more YouTube
After the first YouTube by Fatbidin.com, and a 2-minute mention in Sir David Frost's show, news about Malaysian bloggers being sued by mainstream newspaper has gone on the borderless TV circuit via the Internet.
This time, the immensely popular 'Cranky Geeks with John C. Dvorak' podcast (Episode 48) also talked about the Malaysian lawsuit. Someone in the UK saw it, had it cropped and posted on YouTube as well.
The anchor and the two guests -- Sebastian Rupley, Crank at Large and Dvorak's sidekick, and Lisa Stone, founder of BlogHer.org -- passed some serious opinions on Internet governance in Malaysia. One of them said we may go down the China way for blogging, and China stands for bad, bad Internet governance and occupies the nerve centre of Internet Black Hole.
Back in Malaysia, I have a strong advisory for budding and existing bloggers in the current situation -- if you are serious about blogging, then help prove that we are all responsible bloggers. Click tvPAS.

Caught in the undercurrents of political strife, Jeff & Rocky need to exhibit sufficient strength & brace for the forth coming proceedings. It will authenticate whether blogging is creating a positive environment in our country or has it become a conducive route to enhance the populist ideations of devious opposition parties, troublemakers & empty vessels. But then again, are not some Malaysian bloggers in the arena with a hidden motive to gain political mileage? In short, not all bloggers act in a responsible manner.

To be mentioned and equated with Rosa Parks is a great tribute to both of you. [ DELETED ] The man who spoke with foot in mouth will ultimately pay the price for this bad strategy, not withstanding the outcome of [ DELETED ].
