Bloggers Weave a Web of Influence on Capitol Hill

Posted by: Rob Bluey In: Clippings

There’s a great article in the current edition of National Journal by Bara Vaida about the growing importance of blogging on public policy. I’m quoted in it along with Erick Erickson of RedState, David All of TechRepublican, Henry Copeland of Blogads, Matt Stoller of Open Left, Glenn Reynolds of Instapundit and John Aravosis of AMERICAblog.

The article begins with a recap of Sen. Dick Durbin’s experiment in legislating on Open Left and RedState. It also covers what works and what doesn’t on Capitol Hill, how Sen. Jim DeMint’s staff set the tone on immigration reform by using blogs, and how K Street is adapting to the culture of blogging.

Many thanks to Danny Glover of Beltway Blogroll for making the article available for free on his blog.
