The now very tired debate¹ going on between MSM and the journalistic Blogosphere went another round recently thanks to this piece by Christian Kerr in The Australian and some mud thrown back.

I distinctly remember a time when I enjoyed reading The Australian. It hasn't been that way for a while, and they seem to just keep putting nails in the coffin, becoming more and more conservative and petty (among other adjectives).

Here is a post in reply by the blog being heavily trashed by Kerr. I hope this unavailing and pointless slinging match is abandoned by both sides soon.

Update: More of the same sentiment from Andrew Bartlett.
